Third-party funded project
The BIBB-TUDa vocational orientation study examines the impact of two distinct careers orientation programmes:
1. the utilisation of training ambassadors in the classroom setting, and
2. a self-designed workshop in which students engage with the partially unconscious rationale underlying career decision-making.
The objective of the study is to investigate the effects of both programmes and to identify the conditions under which the benefits of both programmes can be optimized.
For this purpose, students are interviewed prior to and following the implementation of the respective programmes using standardized questionnaires. The investigation is centered on the subjective experiences of the adolescents in relation to the visits of the training ambassadors and the workshop on the logics of career choice. Conversely, the study seeks to ascertain whether the adolescents' career concepts evolve in a manner that is more realistic and devoid of stereotypes, and whether they feel empowered to make a reflective and autonomous career choice.

Own project in cooperation with BU Wuppertal
What we do
Conducting a transnational student survey on the topic of career choice tendencies of the teaching profession; online survey using SoSci Survey. The aim is to investigate the question “Why is the teaching profession (not) of interest to students?”
Target group of the survey
Pupils from all educational programs leading to university entrance qualifications (general and subject-specific university entrance qualification).
This means that the survey can be conducted at both vocational and general education schools (upper secondary level) as well as the specialized classes of the dual system.
Based on research on career choice and career choice tendencies on the basis of expectancy-value theories and “Gottfredson's theory of circumscription and compromise”.
Cooperation with the University of Wuppertal: Prof. Dr. Sylvia Rahn, Lara Dahlke & Dr. Christoph Fuhrmann (AG Berufsbildungsforschung der BUW) – Project KOLBI (Coherence in Teacher Education)
