Vocational field analysis: master and technician in the horticulture [German]

摘要

At present there are so far no qualification profiles in closed form for the vocational field of master gardeners and horticulture technicians. The available vocational field analysis was therefore developed on initiative of the Bundesverband Ehemaliger Gartenbau-Fachschuler Deutschlands e. V., in which participated organizations of former students of altogether 19 horticultural technical schools providing one and two year education respectively. The goal of the investigation was to receive information about the vocational career of technical school graduates, about the connected professional activities and requirements as well as a subsequent evaluation of the technical school attendance. Because of decreasing numbers of students throughout the country the results are to supply initial stages for an evaluation of the teaching offer as well as for required and future-oriented reforms of the technical school. The results are to be understood also as a guideline assistance for professional organizations and potential technical school attendants.
