Step: 3
Dimension: Structural
Qualitative Indicator: Getting a job
Type of activity: Group or individual
The identification of the proper job includes the need of the identification of the proper job sector. The sector will come up by examining the fields of training, education, qualifications, and professional experience of the participants. This will lead to the correct directions in order for them to choose the right job.
This activity aims to direct the TCN(s) to the right job sector(s), as they are represented by the qualifications, training, education, and professional experience that they have. The TCN(s) have to state their knowledge on a table and their gained experience on another table. Based on these two tables, the mentor will guide the TCNs to realise their preferable job sector or specific job.
- One mentor.
- A table listing the professional skills of the TCN(s) (Annex 3.6.5).
- A table listing the training, education, qualifications of the TCN(s) (Annex 3.6.4).
- Print-out form(s) with the tables.
- Pen(s).
Implementation Steps
The mentor will provide the TCN(s) with a table and the TCN(s) have to fill it in with the training, education, and qualifications they have (Annex 3.6.4). After that, both the mentor and the TCN(s) will have a clear picture about the TCN(s) profile.
At the second stage, the mentor will provide the TCN(s) with another table that the TCN(s) have to fill in with their professional experiences (Annex 3.6.5). Through this exercise, the TCN(s) will describe to the mentor the likes and dislikes of their professional past. Also, what skills they have gained.
The mentor and the TCN(s) will match the previous Step 1 and Step 2 and they will come to a conclusion that will give to the TCN(s) the directions to the right job(s). The outcome from this step will be the preferable job sector(s) for the TCN(s) or a particular job(s).
