Pilot project of Arbeit und Leben Hamburg
The Arbeit und Leben pilot project defines new ways to tackle the problem of integrating companies into dual vocational preparation. Teachers have committed themselves for the first time as promoters/brokers to companies and the territory, acting as intermediaries between companies and students looking for an apprenticeship contract, facilitating them in finding a job.
Two tools have been developed: Guidelines for establishing and maintaining “School-Economy” Networks and for approaching and involving companies; a database for improving the matching between the demand of companies and the preferences of the students looking for an apprenticeship contract.
