Young people without graduation: Adult education offers help!
Young people without graduation: Adult education offers help!
In Rhineland-Palatinate, many young people face the challenge of not having a school leaving certificate. This is shown by a current analysis by the regional directorate of the Federal Employment Agency, according to which around one fifth unemployed young person was without schooling last year. In view of this situation, the Volkshochschule Neuwied offers special preparatory courses for adults that aim to acquire the acquisition of professional maturity, i.e. the secondary school leaving certificate. However, these courses are aimed at persons who have completed their compulsory school time but could not achieve a degree. Yuliya Meißner from VHS Neuwied emphasizes how important the secondary school leaving certificate is for personal and professional development.
The courses of the adult education center are tailored to the specific needs of adults. This ensures individual support by experienced teachers. Jutta Günther, the head of the VHS, underlines the central role of her institution to promote people without school. Mayor Peter Jung emphasizes that it is never too late to make up for a school leaving certificate. Interested parties have the opportunity to find out and register directly from Yuliya Meißner.
support projects for young people
In order to further improve the situation on the training market, the projects "Jobfux" and "Youth Scout" were launched. These projects, which started on July 1, 2013, receive their financing from the European Social Fund. Although the training market in Rhineland-Palatinate shows a positive development, many young people continue to need support in the transition from school to training and work. The “Jobfux” project is aimed specifically with the conclusion of “professional maturity” and supports them in choosing and orientation. The goal is the social and professional integration of the participants.
The "Youth Scout" project, in turn, focuses on the integration of young people under the age of 25, which are socially disadvantaged or individually impaired. The focus is particularly on young people without graduation and training dropouts. The youth scouts do outstanding work to facilitate access to activation, qualification and employment offers.
education and integration
The promotion of integration is a social concern that should be regarded as a mutual and ongoing process. The programs of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) are committed to ensuring equal educational opportunities for children, adolescents and young adults regardless of social origin and migration history. A central component of these efforts is the specialist conference "Good Education in the Immigration Society", which takes place on February 11, 2025 and highlights various approaches to integration through education.
In addition, a dialogue forum "Integration through Education" is discussed how the cooperation of different actors can be promised promising. Research projects aim to promote opportunities for opportunities and diversity -sensitive education, especially for girls and women with a history of migration. In this context, multilingualism also plays an important role, since it is considered a valuable social resource. The BMBF supports the early language education of children with a non-German family language to improve their opportunities for integration.
In view of the changing requirements of the labor market in Germany, it is important to win around 400,000 additional specialists from abroad every year. In order to support this process, the recognition of foreign professional qualifications is strengthened. Various initiatives, such as the educational chains, help young people to get started with their professional life and link professional orientation with dual training.Overall, the initiative to give people without gaining school the chance of a better future is a step in the right direction. Together with the "Jobfux" and "Youth Scout" projects, it is being used to sustainably improve the quality of life and the professional prospects of young people in Rhineland-Palatinate.
