PERCORSI PER LE COMPETENZE TRASVERSALI E PER L’ORIENTAMENTO (PCTO), EX ALTERNANZA SCUOLA LAVORO
Meglio noto come ex Alternanza Scuola Lavoro, il progetto “Percorsi per le competenze trasversali per l’orientamento” è un progetto educativo che attraverso l’ esperienza pratica permette agli studenti delle scuole superiori di consolidare le conoscenze scolastiche e di entrare in contatto con quello che è un primo approccio al mondo del lavoro. Il PCTO è un percorso che favorisce una visione ampia dei vari aspetti legati al percorso di studi e di conseguenza a quello professionale, per iniziare a farsi una visione più ampia di quello che sarà il futuro. L’offerta formativa prevede un nuovo monte ore obbligatorio di 210 ore per gli istituti professionali, di 150 ore per gli istituti tecnici e di 90 ore per i licei, da effettuarsi a partire dal 3° anno, in Italia o all’ Estero, nel periodo scolastico o durante le vacanze.
L'agenzia Language Team supporta questo programma dando la possibilità alle nuove leve di avvicinarsi al mondo del lavoro e universitario attraverso diverse forme proposte come incontri con esperti, visite aziendali, lezioni di English for work, workshop, simulazioni di impresa e altro ancora.
Di seguito alcuni esempi dei nostri pacchetti PCTO:
- 20 ore settimanali di English for Work per un approccio più didattico al mondo del lavoro;
- 10 ore settimanali di General English + 10 ore settimanali di English for Work + visite pomeridiane ad una o più aziende locali;
- 15 ore settimanali di General English + 10 ore pomeridiane di seminari con esperti professionisti
Anche se il programma è fitto anche è qui sarà comunque possibile prevedere escursioni in luoghi di interessi limitrofi e/o visite ad attrazioni locali.
Qui di seguito un esempio di un nostro programma PCTO sul tema Teatro composto da 15 ore settimanali di General English + 10 ore pomeridiane di seminari con esperti professionisti.
