Dear Career Counselor,

The role you play is one of the most important roles in the process of helping students choose their future specialties. The career counseling process begins in the early stages and spans various stages, often being lengthy and requiring many tools and plans to guide students safely to make professional decisions based on assistance, helping them choose the right path. Therefore, through this website, we have dedicated a suitable space for counselors targeting school students, providing general guidance information and specialized information for vocational education and training.

The website Mihani Online offers numerous materials to assist counselors in implementing the counseling process using the best scientific methods, including:

1. A set of tests that measure vocational inclinations. Counselors can use these tests during career counseling sessions to help students recognize their vocational inclinations and, consequently, choose the educational path that suits these inclinations. There is also an overview of the tests, explaining their nature, in addition to the best ways to use all the tests available on the site to link the results to the student's professional profile.

Given the website's focus on the importance of vocational education and training, the following tools and materials are available on the site:

2. Occupational Cards: These cards help students understand job descriptions, different work environments, and the skills required in these places. They assist the counselor in introducing the student to the profession and the environment specific to various professions. Additionally, there are videos showcasing different professions and their environments.
3. Success Stories: The website provides success stories of graduates from vocational education and training, illustrating their journey after acquiring the required skills.

Features provided by vocational education and training institutions:

• Work-Based Learning: The work-based learning system, including training and practice in the workplace and professional apprenticeship, is widely adopted in the Palestinian vocational education and training process. It offers high opportunities for graduates to gain practical experience before graduation and acquire practical work experience for employment after graduation. Therefore, it is crucial for students in the guidance and counseling process to be familiar with this system and how to apply it. Click here to view the work-based learning file on the website.
