This module focuses on how experts (teachers, school directors, parents, anyone involved in the orientation choices) should help students to find out what they want to do and offer them a variety of choices when it comes to guidance and counselling, and also make students realize they are the actors of their own life.

Chapter 4: Staying at school
1. The importance of the orientation choice
The issues concerning the choices of orientation are linked with the issues regarding motivation and opportunities offered to the youth.
Guide a youth into a vocational path out of default should be prohibited. This is why, before taking any choice, the youth should be offered different resources of immersion in the training sphere he is going to choose.
No choice should be final and every structure should offer a gateway system for those young people who want to change training courses.
That could be done by offering them internships within one of the partner firms to give them an idea of what they like.

The strongest points of the E- learning package is the online accessibility of numerous resources for teachers and counsellors on how to understand pupils, how to deal with pupils at risk of early school leaving, how to motivate them to continue their studies at school.

The E-learning package section is an interesting source of information to include in my school counseling material. It enriches it.

All modules are interesting and present new approaches. I particularly liked module 6 with the chapter about generation Z. And I like the idea that students are the masters of the choices they make.

The six training modules provide teachers and counsellors with the necessary skills which can enable them to guide students in their professional career. The modules display a wide diversity of online materials ranging from personal opinions on blogs, scientific articles, e-books, surveys, lectures, interviews or in/formational, explanatory, factual, and demonstrative video clips.
