Career guidance and counselling programs aim
to help students make more informed and better educational and career choices.
Among other things, programs offer information on Vocational higher Secondary
school course offerings, career options, the type of academic and occupational
training needed to succeed in the workplace, and post secondary opportunities
that are associated with their field of interest
On the Job Training
On-the-Job
Training (OJT) and Integration of Knowledge and Skills During the transaction
of the vocational courses, a continuous integration of knowledge and skills
take place in the schools In order to be enriched with practical experience,
the students are taken to a service centre or repair centre or production unit
to work in a real life situation under the guidance of an expert practitioner.
Students are to be given project work to be done individually or in small
groups. It will help them consolidate their learning, learn to communicate, and
achieve the time target.
Production
cum Training Centre (PTC) Schools providing vocational courses should strive to
have their own Production cum Training Centres (PTC). These centres provide the
learners with real life experiences and an opportunity for acquiring on-the-job
skills and developing entrepreneurship abilities.
The National Service Scheme was started to
establish a meaningful linkage between the campus and the community. student youth, teachers and the community are
considered the three basic components of the National Service Scheme.
Apprenticeship
Training Under the Apprentices Act, many of the vocational courses currently
being offered are expected to be providing apprenticeship training to the pass
outs. Apprenticeship training enables the pass outs to get acquainted with the
industrial environment and to get first-hand experience of working in an
industry and its work culture.
All
35 courses offered by the VHSE department promise job opportunities but the
problem over the past years has been the lack of a platform where employers and
students can meet. This programme attempts to bridge that gap. Department of
VHSE organizes job Fairs along with the Apprenticeship Selection camps. Walk-in
interviews are scheduled in all regions for those students who have acquired
the Vocational Higher Secondary certificate.
