So said on the case of publication of the monitoring report “Reform on the field of education and professional training” by the organization Get up, where it also said unemployment continues to remain high mainly for women, with only 12.3 percent employed, reports Cosovapress.
And this is reflected in the institutions of professional education.
Florie Xhemajli said professional training schools cannot offer students either practical work.
As for the curriculum, she said they are not producing results.
The scientific skills do not prepare students for the job market. Even if there is any agreement on practical work, according to schools, none of the promises they make end up in any stable agreement... It is considered that 30 per cent of the profiles are not executed on the labour market. The point is that the number of girls in some areas is too small. Girls are mainly texted, caring for the elderly. And based on the RRinvest report, these professions are unstable in the market”, he said.
According to her, measures should be taken, such as enabling management of plans by the school itself, and not for any technical expense to go to the DKA.
Before talking about reforms, the situation needs to be well studied and the plan for specific schools” is drafted, she said.
As far as school politicisation is concerned, Xhemajli said the external effects are one of the problems of these schools.
“There has been school that at a certain moment divides parallels in two, so that the staff recruited at school manages to complete the” hours, she said.
