In the context of modern training approaches and the needs of a constantly evolving job market, a comparison is made between an experimental model in use for six years at the Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering of the Sapienza University of Rome and a pilot experimentation by the Vishnu Educational Development and Innovation Center (VEDIC) in India. We want to examine the characteristics of future engineers who undergo soft skills training to evaluate the effectiveness of the program. Soft skills assessments, aimed at guiding conscious professional choices, represent a potential model for the training of engineers. The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of multiple hybrid interventions using a coaching model that integrates the programmatic skills of engineering and the relational skills of coaching (COACH_ING). The experimental methodology adopted, implemented by VEDIC, is based on the light assessment of the COACH_ING model. The approach used within Sapienza has evolved to include 16 specific transversal skills. Light assessment allows the collection of data from groups of students undergoing different training interventions. The self-assessment data on the acquisition of transversal skills, collected using our tools at VEDIC and Sapienza, were compared. This comparison allowed us to identify the skills most developed by the students and to compare the perceived level of mastery between the control and test groups. This pilot project will highlight the importance of projects such as the “Train to Career”, in order to facilitate students to make informed career choices.

摘要

In the context of modern training approaches and the needs of a constantly evolving job market, a comparison is made between an experimental model in use for six years at the Faculty of Civil and Industrial Engineering of the Sapienza University of Rome and a pilot experimentation by the Vishnu Educational Development and Innovation Center (VEDIC) in India. We want to examine the characteristics of future engineers who undergo soft skills training to evaluate the effectiveness of the program. Soft skills assessments, aimed at guiding conscious professional choices, represent a potential model for the training of engineers. The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of multiple hybrid interventions using a coaching model that integrates the programmatic skills of engineering and the relational skills of coaching (COACH_ING). The experimental methodology adopted, implemented by VEDIC, is based on the light assessment of the COACH_ING model. The approach used within Sapienza has evolved to include 16 specific transversal skills. Light assessment allows the collection of data from groups of students undergoing different training interventions. The self-assessment data on the acquisition of transversal skills, collected using our tools at VEDIC and Sapienza, were compared. This comparison allowed us to identify the skills most developed by the students and to compare the perceived level of mastery between the control and test groups. This pilot project will highlight the importance of projects such as the “Train to Career”, in order to facilitate students to make informed career choices.
