psychologist Sergio Enrique vocational specialist, will speak at the Catholic University Santa Fe on the difficulties faced by teens when they choosing a career

Shortly after starting college enrollment in the city and the region, many teens begin to deal with the obligatory question: What will you study? Sergio Enrique psychologist, vocational specialist, will tomorrow in Santa Fe to discuss the relationship between youth, career and current context in the framework of a conference of high school students conducted by the Universidad Católica de Santa Fe

Soon reach the city, spoke with UNO Journal about the challenges facing today's adolescents when choosing a career. "The idea is to talk with youth about the completion of high school and thought of the possibility of building a life project. I want to make the picture of how higher education is and what has the world of work for young people, "he said.

She continued: "We know the reality of Argentina for youth, education and work, differs depending on the context, regions and social conditions, then we will try to make a screenshot and a comprehensive proposal on the possibility of building projects ".

"Young people today, is facing other challenges in relation to the past, when choosing a career?

"Yes. The context is of great uncertainty. Young people today are a sector that is a mirror of society in general. Because they show all the difficulties to be faced in the world of work and study. It is seen that the difficulties of the 80 and 90 have been expanded: there are problems, in principle, to finish high school, the ones who do get into a situation of great distress when thinking about a future in the possibility of working with educational inclusion success. The possibility of thinking the future seems challenged by the immediacy and the consumption by the mass media who have successful careers, with the possibility of getting out of the tradition. All this is much more pronounced than it was 10 years, then, are moments that make a boy have much time to think what decision will take.

- When you start thinking this decision?

"Usually it happens that in the absence of policies within the education system to address early as possible to start thinking about what I do with my life in the future, is a term defined in the last year of high school. There are cases and intentions but no general policy to be addressed earlier. Therefore, in general, kids get to think after the trip.

- Serving the shares offered by schools, such as bringing students to the Career Fair or to special activities or provide vocational guidance, in the last year or it is too near the time of decision?

"What tends to happen is that these spaces are containers of anguish and anxiety generated wondering what will I do after school. They are very useful when organized well and generate links professionals and advanced students of racing. All that makes kids go rearming social representations are racing.

New times

"The extension of compulsory secondary education," changed the expectations with respect to pursuing a career?

"With the changes in curriculum are two different situations. On the one hand, the polytechnic had made more students in high school and turned it in expectations to the upper level, which does not always mean that those expectations are realized. But there is a greater concern for higher education.

"There are certain races that are taking more widespread because there is an unmet need for professionals, is that conditions in a certain way, to young people when deciding what to study?

-In Counselling is a thought that just because there is a need for professionals in certain areas one must constrict their wishes to those races that are proposed with great job prospects. But on the other hand, if there are policies that have been declared in the direction of priority races where they do need to graduate. What happens is that these races usually come from the harder sciences and generate a acquired culture clash between middle school and what is required at the top level. This causes frustration in many young people early, where they feel they have no knowledge or social skills to tackle the race.

- Why are races which historically have higher tuition?

-Advocacy and public accountant are racing to enjoy social prestige, have much experience in the field of education. Are also generally older races so there is possibility that a professional of that branch is part of the family. On the other hand, it also happens that the universal come secondary to university populations that previously did not. So is the first generation to go to college, and social prestige, many young people opt for traditional courses under the idea that safe work and that will produce massive revenues.

Study. That is the greatest expectation that young people who finish high school. Immediately follows the idea that this study will give them personal satisfaction, then get a job and then earn money. Almost half say they want to study and work, most favors the public to learn and teaching is not an alternative.

The claim comes from a survey undertaken by the Universidad Nacional de Rosario (UNR), the national research framework of the Association of Professional Guidance Republic Argentina (Apor) "The vocational choices of young people in school. Projects, expectations and obstacles ", as applied in the region in 2006.

The survey undertaken by the UNR was answered by 923 young people from 32 schools, most public and polymodal, Santa Fe, Entre Rios and Buenos Aires. Most of the students who participated are Rosario. It was taken the first week of November 2006, coinciding with the end of the course.

Nationally, research is directed by Sergio Rascovan psychologist, also scientific secretary of Apor. The data from this study will be analyzed in vocational conference to be held in Rosario in November (see separate article). But it is anticipated that local results are broadly in line with other regions, where the total sample amounted to 4,323 high school students.

"The first impression left by the study is that no one can think of a project outside of school. Then the familiar educational environment influence this decision, we hypothesize that those who complete the secondary are those with greater education of the family environment, "said research coordinator at the local level, the psychologist Sergio Enrique, who worked together by Erica Iturbe (educational scientist), Marcelo Rocha (psychologist) and Andrea Colaneri (psychologist).

The data cited by Sergio Enrique links you to another reality: many of young people who are in middle school. "We did a survey on school population, but 36% of young people in the country was not in the classroom. Will have to see what happens with this significant segment of kids, "says Enrique.

Regarding the influence of parental education, the survey reveals the impact it has on the children: "The whole side is the highest percentage in both parents, which showed the same school careers of 12 years or more spent in the educational system represents a high educational climate. "

races

as highlighted by the work, 43.88% of those surveyed choose as a project to study and work. Those who intend to study only represent 42.04% of young respondents. In either case, the percentage increases if we add the young people also have other complementary projects such as travel, do sports or charitable work.

The fact that attention is most of those who do choose to study at university level (the 62.24%), and largely in the public university (84, 04%) and only 24, 02% chose a non-tertiary career university.

addition, except those decided by the physical education (ranking 7 th in order of preference), none look to teaching as an alternative study. "In addition to low manifested towards tertiary courses, we also drew attention to the teaching little choice," says psychologist Sergio Enrique.

If it comes to choosing a career, the public accountant is in the first place. Architecture and medicine followed. Then (in a ranking of 15 preferences) the boys were in favor of law, psychology, BA in business administration, physical education teachers, mechanical engineering, agricultural engineering, civil engineering, degree in kinesiology and physical medicine, "not known" graphic design, industrial engineering and veterinary medicine.

Research indicates that "the total of respondents who choose to study at university level, the study intended only 29.79%, while 19.28 % Want to also work. Proportionally, this represents 60.7% intended only to study and 39.3% study and work. Data coincide with what is happening today at UNR where 70% of students does not work.

Most states that want to work to pay their own expenses, then to pay for training, followed by those who want to help around the house and the same number who seek to gain work experience. A small percentage (4%) chose only to work.

On the other hand, to the time of the survey, only 25% of young people who completed their secondary work.
