Health, defence, law, tourism… Many future prospects for the second year students of the Institution Notre-Dame, in Chartres, but you still have to get to know them. The private establishment organized, Tuesday, March 8, its trades forum in order to help the approximately 300 second-year students to discover different trades.
“The idea for them is above all that they can make an informed choice. They will be able to stroll around the different centers and interact with the fifty or so professionals present on site,” explains Frédéric Maillard, deputy director of the Institution Notre-Dame.

The issue of specialties
With the reform of the baccalaureate, second year students, if they are destined for a general baccalaureate, must choose three specialty courses, while in the general and technological high school, fifty-four hours a year must be devoted to orientation. .
“It is very important for the future and their post-bac course. This can be quite anxiety-provoking so we try to support them with this forum. »

If the event should allow students to see a little more clearly, it can also be decisive in the coming months. “They each have a sheet to complete: the students must choose four professions and take notes. The sheets will then be collected for the class councils of the 2nd quarter, which will help us to determine the relevance of their choice of specialties and their motivation”, underlines Frédéric Maillard.
