Recommendations at the end of the screening referred to:



  • training advice (45,2%);

  • psychological advice (30,1%);

  • guidance advice (29,1%);

  • professional advice on the type of job desired (27,7%).


Screening results


As a result of the screening, the most frequently encountered professional projects refer
to:



  • guidance for a different type of training (51,6%);

  • changing professions (31,7%);

  • recognition of competences and aptitudes (29%);

  • professional development (18,9%).


Evaluation by clients


The screening is positively evaluated with respect to aspects such as: self-knowledge,
training, improvement, choosing a profession. Client satisfaction is lower when
expectations are concrete: taking on new responsibilities, a job, setting up a business.
Long-term consequences are especially related to training: beginning training (38% of
subjects), negotiating a training course (35%).


Gaudron, Bernaud (1997) studied the psychological effects of screening, evaluated with
the aid of a questionnaire. They distinguished effects with reference to:



  • representation of competences and interests: self-representations are enriched
    and diversified, and effects can be observed also in case of the savoir être
    competence;

  • self-respect (general, personal, or social);

  • professional project: screening is an opportunity for elaborating realistic and
    stable projects;

  • involvement in an integration behaviour: beneficiaries actively seek
    information.
