We examine the current trends of the professional orientation of high school students on pedagogical training areas. There have been negative trends: 1) the prevalence of information mechanisms of vocational guidance; 2) an overemphasis on the orientation of the instability of the labor market (although for the teaching profession, this problem is very low); 3) the orientation of high school students to receive education in general, and not on the professional values of the profession; 4) attempt to apply to the interests existing in students and values the foreign model based on finding a suitable sphere of labor, instead of the traditional Russian ideas about skills and values shaped in the activity. We reveal the obvious successes and methodological findings of the domestic system of career guidance on the profession of the teacher: 1) through the promotion of self-construction of the personal professional plan of a student; 2) through work with the emotional, motivational and semantic sphere of the person; 3) through formation the value pattern of the teaching profession in high school students.

It is determined that the problem of preparing high school students to choose their own professional future is important in today's world. It is noted that the success of a young person's life largely depends on how correct was the choice of profession, institution of higher education, profession. At the same time, the chosen profession should correspond to the personal qualities and capabilities of a young person, be interesting, and create opportunities for competitiveness in the labor market. Various organizational forms of career guidance work are analyzed: social and psychological services in secondary schools; career guidance departments in basic employment centers; resource centers for professional orientation of student youth in educational districts; social service centers for families, children and youth; various out-of-school institutions; career guidance and recruitment departments in higher education institutions, etc. Emphasis is placed on the need to introduce new organizational forms of career guidance work on the principle of "peer teaches peer", where students of socionomic professions activate high school students to responsibly choose their own professional future. On the one hand, this form of interaction is more effective and efficient because students better understand the interests, motives and needs of high school students. On the other hand, it can become a form of practice for students enrolled in educational programs of socionomic specialties of the first and second levels of higher education (social work, practical psychology, social pedagogy, etc.).

Introduction. In the context of globalisation, competition for high quality and highly effective human capital is increasing. Successful training of highly qualified specialists is impossible without an adequate system of professional orientation of young people that is implemented at all levels of the educational system and expressed in real career guidance practices. Thus, the relevance of scientific understanding and analysis of career guidance activities carried out in modern times is manifested.Theaimof the publication was the study of modern vocational guidance practices present and prevailing in the educational system of the Russian Federation, taking into account world experience.Methodology and research methods.At the theoretical stage, the review and generalisation of scientific publications relevant to the stated theme and objectives of the research were carried out. To study career guidance practices, a questionnaire survey intended for high school students (1087 students of secondary rural, municipal and elite schools) of the Tyumen region was conducted. A selective secondary analysis of sociological studies published by the Russian and foreign scholars was undertaken.Results and scientific novelty. Global trends in career guidance were designated; real examples of the positive experience accumulated by other countries in this sphere were reviewed. The most burning issues of the implementation of career guidance activity in the Russian education system were identified. On the basis of sociological survey, the leading motives of professional choice by high school students were established. It was determined that those motives vary according to a status, a type and a territory of educational institution in which students study. The differences in students’ degree of satisfaction with career guidance actions were shown. The authors conclude that to avoid labour market distortions and many other social problems, it is necessary to concentrate the center of gravity of career guidance work on the general education; therefore, during this period the foundation for professional self-determination of a person is provided. It is necessary to shift the vector of implementation of career guidance practices in the system of general education with the identification of students’ capabilities and predispositions, to inform and to involve them in the world of professions (e.g. employment practices, meetings with representatives of different specialties and employers, as well as other forms and types of career guidance both inside and outside school). The authors propose the creation of federal platform on the principles of voluntary interaction of all interested parties in order to strengthen the role of vocational guidance of the younger generation and to provide students with timely valuable informational and advisory support.Practical significance.The materials and conclusions of the research can be used when developing effective recommendations to strengthen the process of professional orientation of young people in the education system.

The paper considers play as a teaching method in career guidance activities of high school students and believe that play is most adequate in career guidance work, because with its help various kinds of students’ initiatives can be implemented, which is extremely important for this process. And from this position, play cannot be separated from activity and must be considered as a way of realizing it. Didactic research establishes not only the content, essence, signs, characteristics and features of certain processes, factors, phenomena, but also the conditions for their effective functioning. The main purpose of career guidance work is to form the professional orientation of students, to provide them with assistance and support in the process of self-determination when choosing. If career guidance work is carried out in the learning process, then it is of a specific nature. Its main feature is the close connection of the acquired theoretical knowledge with individual skills and possible skills that may be required in the process of professional activity, as well as with possible objects and tools of labor. For this it is necessary to simulate the possible future components of a particular profession, and all these components must be properly organized. Gaming technologies help in this issue.

We examined the characteristics of 77 high school participants from four school districts who participated in the Teaching and Learning Career Pathway (TLCP) at the University of Louisville during the 2018–2019 school year. The program seeks to support the recruitment of a diverse and effective educator workforce by recruiting high school students as potential teachers for dual-credit courses that explore the teaching profession. Utilizing descriptive and inferential analysis (χ2 tests) of closed-ended item responses as well as qualitative analysis of program documents, Web sites, and students’ open-ended item responses, we compared the characteristics of the participants with those of their home school districts and examined their perceptions of the program. When considering gender and race/ethnicity, our analysis revealed the program was unsuccessful in its first year, reaching predominantly white female high school students who were already interested in teaching. Respondents reported learning about the TLCP from school personnel, specifically, guidance counselors (39%), non-TCLP teachers (25%), or TLCP teachers (20%). We found that the TLCP program has not defined diversity in a measurable way and the lack of an explicit program theory hinders the evaluation and improvement of TLCP. Program recruitment and outcomes are the result of luck or idiosyncratic personnel recommendations rather than intentional processes. We identified a need for qualitative exploration of in-school recruitment processes and statewide longitudinal studies to track participant outcomes in college and in the teacher labor market.

Globally, the right and appropriate selection of tertiary programmes by potential students in education corroborates every nation's development progress. In order to explore the effect of career counseling and development in high schools in Ghana with a focus on some selected senior high school (SHS) students, this paper utilized a quantitative (questionnaire) research instrument to corroborate the development a web-based expert system for tertiary programme selection. An analytical summary of questionnaire responses received from the selected SHS students showed that due to limited career assessment processes, SHS students in Accra, Ghana arbitrary select tertiary programmes without realizing how such selections can affect their future careers. In terms of user acceptance testing (UAT), 80% of the selected SHS students (100) found our proposed system to be very useful. Such a system will therefore solve and improve career guidance, counselling, and development problems of SHS students in Ghana.
