Organizational and Managerial Mechanism of Professional Orientation at Early Stages of Life of Human Training

The successful introduction of an organisational and managerial mechanism in the form of a “school-university" model makes a significant contribution to the success of the implementation of vocational guidance projects. The contemporary education system of Russia includes theformation and organisation of the schoolchild’s vocational orientation, albeit at a difficult stage of development. It is due both to the transformational processes in education and the influence of numerous economic, social and other factors. Under market conditions, one of the topical issues for education authorities is the formation of an organisational mechanism for vocational guidance, aimed at ensuring the effective functioning of the vocational guidance system. The purpose of our study is to clarify the explanation of the working of the organisational and managerial mechanism of vocational guidance in the early stages of human life and training. The object of research was the process of vocational guidance of senior pupils of a general education school. The subject of the research was methodological approaches to the management of the vocational guidance process in the “school-university" model. In the study, we used general scientific methods of scientific continuity, comparisons, observation, dialectical logic, epistemological, logical analysis and modelling. As a result of a theoretical study, we determined the essence of the schoolchild’s vocational orientation and identified the need to create a mechanism for managing it in the context of the implementation of innovative approaches in vocational guidance. The organisational and managerial mechanism for professional orientation we presented in the form of a set of blocks. They include the main elements of the management system and the necessary links between these elements. We also outlined the guidelines for improving the management mechanism and the development of a vocational guidance system based on the project approach.
