Schoolchildren in Kamchatka tour significant businesses as part of their vocational guidance program
A Journey into the Future: Kamchatka's "Ticket to the Future" Project
The "Ticket to the Future" project, an ongoing educational initiative in Kamchatka Krai, is designed to help young students explore career opportunities and make informed decisions about their professional paths.
The project, which includes visits to key regional enterprises such as the Kamchatka Drama and Comedy Theater, aims to introduce children to a variety of professions and aid in their professional self-determination.
Recently, fifth graders from School No. 33 in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky had the opportunity to experience this firsthand during an excursion to the Kamchatka Drama and Comedy Theater. Alisa Dolgaya, a student from School No. 33, was among those who participated. She expressed her enthusiasm for the event, stating that it helps in determining her future career path.
During the visit, Alisa and her classmates had the chance to create scenery, try on stage costumes, and perform on stage. Sophia Podoy, the federal representative of the All-Russian Community of Mentor-Educators, noted that the event aimed to introduce children to the fine art material and the profession of a theater worker.
The "Ticket to the Future" project goes beyond just theater work. It includes visits to various regional enterprises, such as the Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky Maritime Trade Port, companies "Okeanrybflot" and "Kamchatka Mill", Kamchatka Blood Transfusion Station, Police Expert-Criminalistics Center, State Archive, and P.S. Krasheninnikov Library.
The project offers students practical experience in different professions, helping them understand what careers are available and who they might want to be to work for the benefit of the state. By providing workshops, master classes, and job shadowing opportunities, the "Ticket to the Future" project equips students with the skills they need for their future careers.
Moreover, students receive support from professionals and career advisors, who help them understand the demands and realities of different jobs. This mentorship and guidance are crucial in helping students make informed decisions about their education and career goals.
In the words of Sophia Podoy, the "Ticket to the Future" project is about more than just career exploration. It's about empowering students to identify and pursue fulfilling professional careers. By broadening students' understanding of possible futures, helping them make better choices, and boosting their confidence in their professional potential, the project is making a significant impact on the lives of young people in Kamchatka Krai.
The "Ticket to the Future" project, extending beyond the realm of theater work, also incorporates visits to various business enterprises such as Kamchatka's Maritime Trade Port, "Okeanrybflot" and "Kamchatka Mill", Kamchatka Blood Transfusion Station, Police Expert-Criminalistics Center, State Archive, and P.S. Krasheninnikov Library.
Through practical experiences, workshops, master classes, and job shadowing opportunities, the project encourages students to explore careers in multiple sectors of finance and business, thereby aiding in their professional self-determination.
