New School Coordinator Appointed: Lucas Ahrweiler - No Diploma Granted Without Network Connection

In the Rhein-Kreis Neuss region, the KAoA (Kein Abschluss ohne Anschluss) initiative is playing a significant role in providing structured career guidance for students. This initiative, integrated into the school curriculum from grade 8, aims to support students in making informed decisions about their future careers and educational paths.

Starting from grade 8, students are required to participate in compulsory career field explorations (Berufsfelderkundungen), which are embedded as school events with preparation and follow-up lessons. These explorations help students gain a better understanding of various career fields.

As students progress to grades 9 and 10, they are supported in selecting suitable internships based on these explorations. This support comes from a collaboration among schools, local businesses, the Regionalagentur Mittlerer Niederrhein, and employment agencies.

To facilitate student-company connections, an online platform, www.fachkraefte-fuer-morgen.de, has been established. This platform allows students to find internships and career exploration places easily, while companies can offer them directly.

The municipal coordination offices, in cooperation with various stakeholders, coordinate this regional effort. Through these cooperative networks, KAoA integrates career guidance into school curricula while linking students to local employers and training opportunities.

The KAoA initiative is not just about career guidance; it's about fostering informed career choices and contributing to regional workforce development. It provides systematic guidance for students from the 8th grade, including potential analyses, practical phases in businesses, and individual counseling.

Downloadable information materials, such as a parent's guide, are available on the website www.rhein-kreis-neuss.de/kaoa. For specific inquiries, the KAoA team can be contacted at [email protected].

Students can arrange professional field explorations and internships for free through the online portal www.fachkraefte-fuer-morgen.de. An event calendar providing tips on events related to vocational orientation can also be found on the same website.

The goal of the KAoA initiative is to support youth in shaping a promising future career. It does this by providing a structured, school-based career guidance system that is supported by regional coordination and digital platforms to facilitate student-company connections.

In summary, the KAoA initiative in the Rhein-Kreis Neuss area is providing a comprehensive, school-based career guidance system that starts in grade 8 and is supported by regional coordination and digital platforms to facilitate student-company connections, thus fostering informed career choices and contributing to regional workforce development.
