Vocational Guidance
We are both enjoying our time here very much and have made many new friends. We are living in a New York home with 8 other girls who are all of a similar age to us. We get along very well and enjoy our time together! We have already received our senior rings which look fantastic. We have also travelled to Wisconsin for a football game with the Mooseheart Red Ramblers.
Thank you very much for giving us this opportunity for so many new and exciting experiences. Thanks again. (Thank you too Macailla and Roxanne!) From Ken Priest PGG Chairman of Vocational Guidance Vocational Guidance Courses are run annually, in October, for young people of 15 to 17 years, either grandchildren or children of members. Additionally Lodges can sponsor children from local schools. What is the Vocational Guidance Course? 
Young people attend Mooseheart from Sunday until Tuesday. They complete an aptitude test and have the benefit of a "One to One" interview with the Psychologist, Mr Brian Parkinson, who advises them about the kind of career they should pursue. A written report is also sent to their parents. Students attend interesting lectures including career options and advice on how to present themselves at interview and other subjects.Members children are privileged to have the opportunity to take part in the USA Vocational Guidance Programme which is at International Headquarters in Illinois. This is a year long programme, giving them practical experience in a range of activities; and their CV's certainly demonstrate that our Moose children stand out from others. Many letters have been received over the years from attendees acknowledging the help they have received, in choosing their career from the Vocational Guidance Course at Mooseheart. Ken also reminds us that the Vocational Guidance Course is a powerful tool in the realm of membership. To attend the course is an opportunity not to be missed! YES IT IS ALL FREE and part of the many benefits your children can receive from your membership of Moose International! |
