Hospiten once again joins the "Canarias Masterclass" initiative, an innovative pre-university orientation project that offers fifty students selected from among more than 2,400 enrolled, the unique opportunity to share a working day with professionals in the sector they are interested in. This experience allows young people to immerse themselves in the reality of the profession they wish to pursue, ask all their questions, receive valuable advice and experience first-hand the professional reality.
The program has several key objectives: to avoid mistakes in the choice of career, to prevent the flight of talent, to provide insight into the business reality of the Canary Islands, to offer professional guidance, to encourage entrepreneurship and to promote networking. To achieve this, experts in various areas such as biomedical engineering, nursing, pediatrics, cardiology, gynecology, ophthalmology and pharmacy, among others, will share their knowledge and experience with the students of the 2nd year of Bachillerato who participate in the program.
Canarias Masterclass' is an initiative of Canary Talent, a non-profit association dedicated to the professional guidance of students, of which Hospiten has been a member since its foundation nine years ago. The activities include face-to-face sessions where the group's professionals explain to the young people what their daily work is like. The main objective is that students interested in scientific or healthcare university careers can obtain a clear and practical vision of their professional future, resolve doubts and learn about the reality of these professions.
