🔵 Research🟡 Education🔴 Employment💡 Expands the STEM strategic plan
- Description
- Experiment and test the creation of career exploration centers that students can attend from the last year of middle school to university, substituting a part of class hours, to promote an informed understanding of career options and experiences, focused on careers in high demand and in relation to EU priorities (i.e, the Green Deal, security but also entrepreneurship). The centers offer structured activities between secondary and tertiary education, or teachers/university lecturers training on career design support to students, which are investigated through longitudinal studies to test the effectiveness in particular for vulnerable students. The centers promote lifelong learning beyond the traditional school years and encourage inclusion of local actors.

- This action expands the plan, in particular the"STEM skills foundries" centres through which students experience and explore in-demand STEM career option in relation to EU priorities with the inclusion of local actors and take informed career choices. (3.2 pg. 10, “Pilot in 2026 the development of STEM skills foundries in strategic sectors by involving companies to mentor young student entrepreneurs, in cooperation with vocational education and training providers and with higher education institutions, providing them access to their laboratories, technical infrastructures and equipment, development of intellectual property (IP), as well as facilitating access to venture capital. This should also bring together VET and higher education providers, talented VET and higher education students and the world of finance, particularly venture capital”
