Wishing a better life for their children, modern parents always try to “push” their child into college so that he does not have to “earn his bread through hard work.” It is precisely this stereotype and parental love that prevents you from getting a correct idea of ​​modern working professions and choosing a real job to your liking. We invite you to take a fresh look at the “prestige” of blue-collar jobs and find out what the government is doing to popularize them.

People of the older generation, parents of today's graduates of schools, technical schools and universities remember the times when the image of a person working profession on propaganda posters was created using a simple, manual or mechanical set of tools. Many of them began their working careers with a conventional mechanical machine, built at the beginning of the era of industrialization. The existing stereotype about people in blue-collar occupations is firmly held in memory as unprestigious, physically difficult work.

We invite you to take a fresh look at the “prestige” of blue-collar jobs and find out what the government is doing to popularize them.

A little history: vocational education yesterday


Appeared at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries vocational schools became a real breakthrough in the field of education in agrarian Russia. Young people flocked there, wanting to get at least some education and integrate into city life. Note that the desire to become a city resident was a strong enough incentive to get a working profession.

But another era came: general illiteracy was defeated during the period of developed socialism, and young people began to conquer the country’s universities, the number of which in the USSR, in the post-war years, increased every day. The prestige of blue-collar professions began to gradually decline. At the end of the eighties of the last century, training in secondary vocational schools reached its lowest level. In many ways, these were the costs of the Soviet education system. High school graduates who were not particularly eager to acquire good knowledge filled empty seats in nearby schools.

Former careless schoolchildren “sat out” until they came of age at their desks, acquiring “at least some kind of working profession” and at the same time receiving a certificate of compulsory secondary education, which, of course, did not provide any opportunity for further education and career growth. Prestige of the working profession and training in vocational schools fell to the lowest point in the entire history of their existence almost simultaneously with the beginning of the collapse of the USSR.

But the decline in the prestige of the working profession should not be blamed solely on the socialist education system, which, by the way, is still recognized as one of the best in terms of the quality of knowledge. This trend continued for a long time in developed capitalist countries, until the advent of the modern era of technology improvement.

What has changed?

Modern industrial enterprises are equipped with sophisticated electronic devices. Robots do the hard work. The labor market has become more demanding of the quality of knowledge of young specialists entering work at industrial enterprises. To manage the most complex equipment, people with a fairly high level of knowledge are now required.

This radically changed the attitude both towards people in working professions and towards requirements related to the level training of specialists. Time itself and the development of technological progress prompted the idea of ​​reviving the prestige of secondary professional institutions and respectful attitude towards the working profession.


Thus, in 2012, the international non-profit movement "WorldSkills" was born, the main goal of which was to work in the field of development of vocational education to the level of world standards, harmonization of the educational process and development of the education system in secondary vocational educational institutions. The World Skills Championship is held every two years, and the Russian team has taken part in it three times already.

This year, our professionals confirmed their leadership in six professions at once: web development, network and system administration, IT solutions for business, jewelry making and freight forwarding. In addition, the Russian team took first place in the team competition. Our schoolchildren, who won three gold medals at the JuniorSkills competitions held as part of WorldSkills.

By the way, the next world championship in professional skills will be held in 2019 in Russia.

What measures are being taken in Russia to raise the prestige of blue-collar professions?

The WorldSkills movement has received widespread support around the world. Concern for workers and the prestige of working professions has also found a response in the education system of the Russian Federation. Working in this direction, the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation created more than seven thousand regional sites in 2016: two thousand future workers are currently studying in competency centers. All necessary conditions have been created for them. Students undergo practical training in the conditions of modern industrial enterprises.

The Ministry of Education and Science has already compiled a list of the most in-demand blue-collar professions. In accordance with this list, enrollment is open for students in fifty professions that are in priority demand. At the same time, the training program provides that modern workers are mainly specialists in the field of electronic systems management and system administrators, specialists in robotics used in various industries.

More than 1000 colleges Today they work in 74 regions of the country, and they train specialists in leading working specialties. The prestige of the working profession in Russia has increased by 14% compared to last year, as O. Vasilyeva, Minister of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation announced at a meeting of the Federation Council. An increasing number of former graduates are choosing a working profession, which corresponds to the needs of business and the overall economic strategy of the state.

In the Ivanovo region, within the framework of the forum of students of professional educational organizations “Professional personnel - for the 100th anniversary of the Ivanovo region”, the III Regional Championship “Young Professionals” (WorldSkills Russia) was held. 139 competitors from eight regions of Russia took part in the competition, including representatives of the Yuryevets Agro-Industrial College. The professional skills of students and juniors were assessed by 187 experts.

On the sites, located on the territory of a number of colleges in the Ivanovo region, specialized competence centers have been created. Their goal is to prepare a competitive team for the region in educational programs adjusted to meet the requirements of professional standards and WorldSkills Russia competency standards. Today, the creation of specialized competence centers is one of the two main indicators of the priority project “Workforce for Advanced Technologies”.

During the opening of the championship, which took place at the Culture and Recreation Center of the city of Ivanovo, among other participants, Olga Antonova, the acting head of the education department of the Ivanovo region, greeted.

– For ourselves, we note that for several years in a row, 50 percent of schoolchildren in the Ivanovo region after 9th grade enter institutions of secondary vocational education, said Olga Antonova. – This is the optimal ratio, when half of the children complete specialized training in high school, and half choose secondary vocational education institutions. This figure 5 years ago was just over 40 percent.

In the foyer of the Center, presentation platforms were set up for professional educational organizations in the Ivanovo region that train personnel in the fields of education, culture and healthcare.

Students and experts from the Ivanovo, Vologda, Kostroma, Novgorod, and Orenburg regions, as well as the cities of Moscow, St. Petersburg and Sevastopol took part in the championship. Yuryevets Agro-Industrial College presented a veterinarian's office in miniature. Our delegation included Anastasia Malysheva, Polina Arkhipova and Vadim Vasiliev.

An ultrasound was performed for a four-legged patient and a performance by a trained dog. The procedure was carried out by Vadim Vasiliev, a participant in last year’s “Young Professionals” championship, a fourth-year student at the Veterinary Department of the Yuryevets Agro-Industrial College.

Directly in Yuryevets, on the grounds of the Yuryevets Agro-Industrial College, participants in the “Veterinary” competency competed in the ability to conduct a veterinary and sanitary examination and the correctness of the clinical examination of animals: a calf, a sheep, a rabbit and a duck, as well as an ultrasound examination of a dog.

At another site, the participants examined the dog: ultrasound diagnostics, urine testing using special equipment, suturing the wound (choosing one of six types of sutures by lot). At the next site, the contestants performed tasks on obstetric care and fetal diagnosis: obstetric care for abnormal position of the fetus (calf), defrosting sperm and checking its quality. There were a total of 17 nominations.

This year, only students studying here took part in the competition program at the site of the Yuryevets Agro-Industrial College; there were no students from other cities. The honor of Yuryevets College was defended by Anastasia Kapustina, Marina Smirnova, Alena Shabaeva, Anastasia Pukhova, Alexandra Krupina.

Student of the Yuryevets Agricultural College Sergei Abrosimov took part in competitions in the “Agricultural Machinery and Equipment” competency. The competition took place on a site located on the territory of the Gavrilovo-Posad district. At the competition stage, which took place at a site located in Kineshma in the “Entrepreneurship” competency, Svetlana Dolganova and Nadezhda Sabri competed.

Independent experts and representatives of organizations - social partners of the educational institution - veterinarians A.A. Cherepanov and T.V. Chizhaeva worked at the site.

Throughout the championship and even the day before, students from schools in our and neighboring districts of the Ivanovo region visited the college as part of career guidance work. Excursions for guests began with a career guidance room; college students introduced them to specialties and professions.

Schoolchildren from the Yuryevets and Rodnikovsky districts visited not only competition sites, but also workshops, laboratories, a gym, a library and a canteen. The children actively participated in master classes on first aid, geodesy, simulator driving, and solved situational problems based on traffic rules.

The site was visited by a delegation of the management of the agro-industrial complex from the Rodnikovsky district.

– They highly appreciated the equipment of the venues with modern equipment and the professionalism of the contestants, – Olga Sergeevna said . – The heads of the farms invited several students to their practice, because they are very interested in our guys.

And here’s what Alexander Anatolyevich said about this:

– Unfortunately, we cannot currently provide new housing for a young specialist, but we will immediately rent a comfortable apartment for him. You just have to pay utilities. We understand that any person needs start-up capital to get started, so immediately after getting a job we will resolve the issue of allowances, which will be issued under certain conditions.

The workplace will be equipped with the necessary equipment and modern diagnostic devices, similar to those on which they are currently training and conducting competitive events. Of course, in the first steps, a young specialist will need help from experienced specialists, and he will receive it.

The main thing is to have a desire to work. We are engaged in breeding pedigree cattle, which are now in great demand. This means there are prospects for development and improvement of well-being.

The farm has all the infrastructure: school, kindergarten, library, House of Culture.

In the future, if a specialist settles in with us, we will help him purchase housing on preferential terms.

– We will help the young specialist in everything. And at this stage the main thing is not to make a mistake.

Many people are afraid of everyday difficulties. We will help resolve all issues. If before everything was on a general basis, now we approach each individual individually. If only it worked well. They won’t get the kind of experience we have anywhere else.

Among those invited to work was Vadim Vasiliev, a future veterinarian. He dreamed of treating animals since childhood. The young man represented the college at the opening of the championship.

– I didn’t think about choosing a profession for a long time. Moreover, now it is quite in demand,” Vadim said. – This year I’m just finishing my studies at Alma-Mate, and I’m already receiving offers from employers. The salary is quite decent - from 20 thousand on average. There are also a lot of social programs designed to attract specialists to come. They give us apartments and offer a number of benefits. Many even offer to allocate financial resources for the purchase of a car under certain conditions.

On March 2, the closing ceremony of the regional championship “Young Professionals” (WorldSkills Russia) took place at the Olympia sports and entertainment complex in Ivanovo.

The names of the winners and runners-up were announced at the ceremony. The honored guests presented them with medals, diplomas and memorable prizes from the competition organizers. Also, a special prize from employers was established for each competency.
