Ten DECIDE career guidance hubs have begun operating in six regions of Ukraine. They serve as spaces for self-discovery and professional development, where teenagers can learn about different fields of activity, receive expert advice, and participate in practical career guidance activities.
At the Chernihiv Professional Lyceum of Railway Transport and Higher Professional School No. 7 in Kremenchuk, one career guidance hub was visited by more than 600 students in just a few months.
