The Mobile Educational Classrooms practice is an alternative form of vocational training arrangement, when the material and technical equipment necessary for the training process is moved to the location of the vocational training services.

The Mobile Educational Classrooms practice is implemented by the employment service of the population of the Leningrad Region. Mobile Educational Classrooms have been created on the basis of the State Autonomous Educational Institution of Additional Education Center for Advanced Professional Training Profstandard (hereinafter - Profstandard Center), subordinate to the Committee for Labor and Employment of the Population of the Leningrad Region. Profstandard Center is licensed to perform educational activities and conducts vocational training and additional vocational education for citizens, including in the directions of the Center for Employment of the Population.

Prerequisites for the creation of the practice :

-a significant territory of the Leningrad Region (more than 85,000 square kilometers);

- the absence of stationary sites for the implementation of vocational training of citizens in the professions in demand in certain districts of the Leningrad Region;

- the unwillingness of citizens to undertake training in professions of interest outside the place of residence (for family, personal, financial and other reasons).

As part of the practice, 3 mobile educational classrooms were created for vocational training in the following directions:

“Plumbing and Heating”
Hairdressing
“Tourist Activities”

The duration of the program is:

vocational training in the retraining programs “Plumbing and Heating”, “Hairdressing” - 320 hours (a certificate is issued upon completion of training)
additional professional education under the advanced training program “Tourism activities” - from 100 hours (a certificate on completing the advanced training program is issued upon completion of training).

Each mobile educational classroom comes with a set of related tools, equipment, consumables, teaching materials (allowing both theoretical and practical training at the same time), which are placed in a special van trailer for transportation (passenger two-axle of category 01 for a driver with a license of category “B”).

The equipment of each mobile classroom provides for simultaneous classes for a group of up to 10 people.

Mobile classrooms are deployed in the premises of community centers, in educational organizations, at enterprises that meet certain technical requirements. Organizations provide their premises for the placement of mobile educational classrooms on the basis of agreements, the terms of which are discussed individually in each case.

Equipment in mobile educational classrooms is installed and dismantled and teachers are instructed how to use it by employees of Profstandard Center responsible for this area of work.

Classes, using mobile educational classrooms, are held by teachers who live in the area, where it is planned to place a mobile educational classroom (or, in nearby ones). If necessary, teachers are provided with accommodation.

Each mobile educational classroom is located on the territory of the organization providing the premises for a period equal to the duration of training in accordance with educational program with a margin of several days for the installation and dismantling of equipment.

Training on the basis of mobile classrooms is carried out according to the same educational programs that are implemented at the stationary training sites of Profstandard Center - no program modifications are required. Upon completion of the training, Profstandard Center, which is an educational institution, issues a document on the completed training of the established form.

Beneficiary’s story:

Babaeva Valeria, hairdresser, 29 years old

Having lost my job, I was registered at the Slantsevo branch of the Leningrad Region Employment Center. There were no suitable vacancies for the existing professions (cashier, librarian) for several months, and I thought about getting a new specialty. At this time, they were just recruiting a group for training as a hairdresser.

In educational institutions of our region, this profession is not taught, it is expensive to travel to St. Petersburg. And here came a mobile classroom - all accessories, even for practical classes, were available. I signed up right away and was able to get the profession I dreamed of. I have been working in my favorite profession for several years in a prestigious salon.
