Laying the foundation for a long-term cooperation between the Career Guidance Office of Municipality of Tirana and the Career Guidance Office of the Canton of Ticino in Switzerland!

During June, representatives of the Career Guidance Office of Municipality of Tirana and RisiAlbania’s staff visited and exchanged with the Career Guidance Office of the Canton of Ticino and also with the Career Guidance Office of the Canton of Bern.

In their second visit to Ticino, the staff of career centers had the opportunity to assist one-to-one career consultations, learn more about the orientation of pre-university students but also orientation and re-orientation of adults. In addition, the Albanian delegation had the opportunity to learn more about collaboration of career centers with other stakeholders like schools, labour offices and the institution for continuing education and lifelong learning (SUPSI).

This exchange coincides with an important development as the Career Guidance Office of Municipality of Tirana has started a cooperation with Ministry of Education for the integration of modules on career education in schools and diversification of the services.
