Lack of knowledge of trades
“We invited 450 ninth-grade students from our recruitment pool (Fameck-Rombas and Thionville axis) and several companies from the north of Moselle (Geodis, ThyssenKrupp, BH Transports, etc.) responsible for informing secondary school students in very concrete terms about the various jobs in logistics and the reality on the ground,” continues the headmaster, who agrees that young people are really unfamiliar with the issue. Valérie Leblond, National Education Inspector, in charge of the transport-logistics sector, insisted on the need to establish links between professionals and establishments in a course that gives pride of place to pedagogical alternation, “twenty-two weeks of on-the-job training over three years.
The Association for the Development of Training in Logistics Transport (AFT), partner of the project, was able to enlighten them on employment needs or the digitization of the profession. The armed forces information and recruitment center (Cirfa), Greta Lorraine-Nord (training from CAP to BTS) and the Franco-German University (Ufa) also had stands, on which future high school students relayed. A visit to the technical logistics platforms of the vocational high school and the presentation of the training tools gave them a more precise idea of what the supply chain is. Or, the discovery of the different stages from the purchase of a product with a smartphone until the delivery to the customer. Again, a very concrete approach.
