The article is devoted to the social project planning of the system of occupational guidance. The article is based on the author's conclusions, which is based on the theory of the Soviet psychologist Klimov E. A. The article presents a project model of occupational guidance in the system of university degree. The purpose of the model: to attract school leavers to their subsequent matriculation into the educational institution. The presented model solves the following problems: informing about current majors of an educational institution; university promotion; mediation between graduating students and employers; consulting in occupational guidance of school leavers and students.
Key words: opinion surveys, model, occupational guidance.
The model of the system of occupational guidance includes social diagnostics, project planning and technologization of the system of occupational guidance.
The author used the theory of the Soviet psychologist E. A. Klimov “I want — I can ‒ I must”, where the main factors of choice are the interests, abilities of the school leaver and the relevance of the profession [1, с. 1]. The author made the following conclusion on this theory and on the his own choice.
Modern school leavers choose an educational institution and a major. Future tertiary student begin preparing for a future major and choosing an educational institution in grade 11.
A person thinks about his further professional career in grades 9–11. The student chooses the future direction: humanitarian, mathematical or technical. The decision is based on the information and advice of parents, friends. Personality analyzes this information.
Next, the student chooses a major. It depends on three factors: the ability of the student, career plans, desired salary. The first factor does not change. The other two factors are subject to change by the inner circle. The reason is the teenager's desire to get approval from adults (external motive).
After choosing a future major and the necessary modules for exams, the school leaver chooses an educational institution. Two factors play an important role: the proximity of the educational institution to the school leavers’ place of boarding and the prestige of the educational institution. The school leaver also analyzes the opinions and stories of inner circle who studied in this educational institution.
After passing the exams, the school leaver makes the last choice: financial. The school leaver chooses training on a contractual or budgetary basis. Here the school leaver own motives are important, which consist of the financial and social aspects of studying.
The above algorithm took shape in the following conclusions:
- A fundamental factor in the choice of educational direction is the school leaver’s personal abilities.
- The fundamental factor in the choice of a major school leaver is the result of the exams.
- The fundamental factors in the choice of the educational institute school leavers are proximity to home and family.
The purpose of social diagnostics of the system of occupational guidance is to collect information about the research problem. The research problem lies in the contradiction between the existing number of applicants, for example, at the Institute of Social Sciences and Mass Communications, and the need to create a model of a system of occupational guidance.
The following directions of social diagnostics: student and schoolchildren survey, expert survey, focus group and SWOT analysis.
