Basic Education Programme for Afghanistan (BEPA) - Work package: "Transition into work life"

The objective of the project was to improve the transition from school to work.
The expected results were:
  • Develop a concept and an action plan for the acquisition of work experience during lower and upper secondary school levels, as well as corresponding material.
  • Develop proposals for the development of curricula and teaching methodologies in order to improve the transition into work life.
  • Develop a new brochure on the topic “Transition into work life” in order to inform teachers and pupils of secondary schools in 5 northern provinces of Afghanistan on career possibilities.
  • Test the concept in pilot schools. Create links with the local economy in selected schools for grade 7-9 students e.g. in the form of study visits to local enterprises.
  • Prepare and organise a national symposium on the improvement of career orientation.
  • At the end of the project, present a strategy for the institutionalisation of a modular concept.
