Contribution
As part of the national treaty of apprenticeship and specialist recruitment in Germany the campaign ‘Bildungsketten’ combines several affirmative actions’ available since 2010 of country and states with new ones. Goal is to prevent or at least reduce the dropout from apprenticeships, waiting loops or the early leaving of school without a school-leaving qualification. In focus is an efficient and intertwining assistance. Within a potential analysis the individual need of assistance of the teenager is tested in reference to his/her methodic, social and personal competences. The results achieved here form together with that of teachers, advisors of the federal employment agency and socio-pedagogical professionals predicted probability of success of the assistance measures the decisive criteria for the admission of the pupils into the special program. The career entry companion is responsible for the specific planning of assistances measures. He is the central contact person for parents, teachers, companies and counselling centers. In one-on-one conversations with the teenagers he gathers data about their educational and personal starting situation agrees upon development goals and documents the transition process. After the conceptual notion of the federal employment agency the career entry companion becomes the most important key figure of the teenagers by not only helping them with the realization of their goals, but also by safeguarding their interests in the face of third parties. The case analysis gives insights into the individual, but also in general problematic nature of career entry companionships.
