Thematic Business Bridging and OSO
Ranum Efterskole College has developed a new bridge-building project in collaboration with UU-Center Vesthimmerland and a number of youth education institutions. The students have to choose between different worlds or industries in their bridge-building, where the different secondary schools work together to give the student a realistic experience of the path to a particular industry.
Experiences from the bridge-building course are included in the students' Compulsory Independent Assignment (OSO), which is written after the course.
Read more about the different worlds below and watch the whole process by clicking on this link. The TEBO course is selected before 7 June on the School Plan. You choose by logging into the School Plan under Studies->Questionnaire->Thematic Vocational Bridging and OSO.
You choose by logging in school curriculum under Surveys->Questionnaire->Thematic Business Bridging and OSO.
At the Parent Talks on 17 November, we invite parents who work in the different worlds to give presentations about their education and experiences.
