Job Shadow Day allows students aged 16 and over to accompany a professional (or their representative) during a working day.
The experience differs from a simple company visit, as the students can observe a professional performing the daily tasks of his/her job for a whole day. In this way, students get an idea of the responsibilities of a professional and gain valuable impressions of working life.
Job Shadow Day aims to transmit to the students:
the relevance of a good school education: students realise how their school knowledge and skills help them in working life;
the requirements of the labour market (profiles and skills needed)
an overview of the responsibilities of a professional;
the meaning and importance of teamwork
an overview of the different career paths;
the desire to be an entrepreneur
Period: 1 day between 22 and 26 March 2027
The Job Shadow Day gives the company the opportunity to:
to gain new personnel resources: meeting a potential future apprentice or employee;
positioning yourself as an attractive employer;
to present themselves and promote a positive image;
to engage in the field of corporate social responsibility;
passing on professional experience to the young entrepreneurs of tomorrow;
