we4edu 2.0 | Digital Career Guidance

The we4edu project, run by the Education Association of the Hessian Economy (Bildungswerk der Hessischen Wirtschaft e.V.), offers Darmstadt residents a digital learning program during their career orientation phase. With its broad and flexible approach, we4edu aims to reach all educational institutions in the city. Across five modules, educators guide participants from an initial interest assessment and virtual exploration of various professions to the development of successful digital application strategies. In an ever-changing digital and economic landscape, we4edu remains at the forefront of current developments and adapts to evolving circumstances. The program places a particular emphasis on gender-sensitive career guidance and the fulfillment of individual life goals.
