The role of parents in vocational integration
Category Project
Ausgangslage und Ziele
A secondary analysis based on HfH research projects
The transition from school to employment is often difficult for young people with special needs. It calls for professional support, but private social networks are also very important. The role played by parents is especially significant here. They help to determine how young people tackle the requirements of choosing an occupation (Kracke & Noack, 2005; Neuenschwander & Garre, 2008), and their attitudes will influence the motivation and work ethics of the new employee (Diemer, 2007; Neuenschwander, 2014). In practice, teachers and training providers do not always manage to involve parents adequately in the process of vocational integration (Lanfranchi & Sempert, 2012; Schellenberg & Hofmann, 2013). For a better comprehension of the reasons for this, it is important to study the perceptions and (re-)actions of parents in greater depth. This secondary analysis will therefore serve to evaluate data from various HfH projects relating to the transition from school to employment in a systematic, non-project-specific manner.
