Shadowing Days at Moduls Engineering
Today annual Junior Achievement Latvia (JA Latvia) career education programme event Shadowing Days took place. This year’s theme is promising future professions, demand for which, as current market forecasts suggest, will exceed the available number of specialists. Mainly these are professions in industries such as construction, engineering, manufacturing, natural sciences, mathematics, IT and healthcare.
Moduls Engineering had an exciting day in store for its shadows beginning with design and office work up to project implementation at our construction sites allowing youngsters to get acquainted with the construction process.
Our young shadows started their day following ongoing engineering and planning work at the office and then headed to our current project sites: construction of Zolitūdes Gymnasium new building, reconstruction of English Gymnasium building and construction of social housing complex in Mežrozīšu Street. At each site Moduls Engineering construction supervisors told youngsters about current stage of each project, work being performed and used technologies and materials.
The purpose of the Shadowing Day is to promote connection of school education content with real life helping young people knowingly plan their careers, choose their future professions and properly prepare themselves for the needs of the labour market. For the company it is a good opportunity to acquaint youngsters with its business and attract future colleagues.
