Shape your professional future
Career Lab IATH is a space for guidance, practice and development where students can turn experience, skills and goals into concrete steps towards their professional future.
Guidance, practice and development
A lab for learning by doing
Career Lab helps students understand their pathway, communicate it clearly and prepare for professional situations through guided activities. The work starts from real experience and develops through practice, observation, discussion and improvement.
A guided environment for observing, practising and improving.
Recognise what you can do
Review your studies, projects, experience and interests, linking them to the skills you have developed and the goals you want to explore.
Practise in a guided environment
Prepare materials and try presentations, questions or simulations before facing professional situations.
Turn feedback into action
Discuss observations and examples with a teacher or tutor and choose concrete ways to improve your materials and communication.
Aims and objectives
From experience to a more informed pathway
The aim is not to prescribe one direction. It is to provide tools and opportunities for practice so that students can understand their profile, communicate the value of their experience and approach the next step with greater awareness.
Value your experience
Recognise learning, responsibilities and outcomes developed through study, projects, placements and other experience.
Strengthen employability
Develop transferable capabilities for reading opportunities, presenting yourself and managing your pathway more independently.
Communicate clearly
Select relevant examples and build a professional story that is concrete, understandable and appropriate to the context.
Prepare for professional situations
Practise with materials, presentations and simulations to recognise what works and what can be improved.
Plan the next steps
Turn discussion into realistic priorities, revisions and further practice for your development pathway.
An active learning cycle
A pathway that starts with you
Career Lab follows an active learning cycle. Each stage starts from what you have already experienced and creates useful material for reflection and the next attempt.
Discover
Experience, interests and goals
Prepare
Profile, CV and examples
Practise
Exercise or simulation
Reflect
Evidence and guided discussion
Improve
Actions, revisions and a new attempt
Technology supports the work; educational responsibility remains human.
Supporting technology
An AI platform supporting learning
The digital platform supports Career Lab activities. It may help authorised staff collect and organise materials, structure work around exercises and prepare an initial set of observations for human review.
Organise materials
Bring together profile information, text, voice, video and other materials relevant to the agreed activity.
Support exercises and simulations
Help structure repeatable activities that make examples, content and communication choices observable.
Prepare an initial outline
AI may organise observable elements and produce a working draft. It does not make a definitive assessment of the person.
Keep the pathway connected
Link materials, observations and actions so that one attempt, the feedback and the next step remain connected.
A controllable process
From materials to contextualised feedback
Every step leaves room for checking, correction and discussion with the student.
Guided experience
From attempt to feedback
The video shows how materials, observations and human dialogue combine into a formative pathway that is understandable and geared towards improvement.
Bring your materials
Experience, CV, text, voice or video become the starting point.
Complete the attempt
The activity makes examples and communication choices observable.
Discuss the feedback
The tutor checks the observations and turns them into concrete actions with you.
Materials and exercises
What you can work on
Activities may vary according to the module and agreed aims. The work may include materials and situations such as those below.
Profile and CV
Organise experience, skills and outcomes, making the link between what you have done and what you want to develop clearer.
Professional introduction
Build a concise, concrete story by selecting examples that are relevant to the audience and context.
Text, voice and video
Observe content and communication choices in the agreed activities without inferring emotions, personality or hidden aptitudes.
Feedback and improvement plan
Review observations with the tutor and turn them into revisions, exercises and priorities for the next stage.
Profile and CV, professional contexts, text-voice-video and the improvement cycle.
Clear roles
People and technology, with clear responsibilities
Career Lab creates value through collaboration between the student, teacher or tutor and digital tools. Each role remains clear.
The student
Brings experience, goals and materials; takes part in activities, asks questions, discusses feedback and decides which actions to pursue.
The teacher or tutor
Sets the context, guides practice, checks observations, relates them to the pathway and leads a clear, constructive feedback discussion.
The platform and AI
Support collection, organisation and an initial reading of materials. They do not decide a person’s value, potential or suitability.
Technology makes the process more organised; the meaning of feedback comes from human dialogue.
A learning space,
not a judgement
One attempt does not define the person, and no automated output should be treated as a verdict.
Protection and transparency
A protected, transparent and non-judgemental environment
Career Lab is a learning environment. One attempt does not define the person, and no automated output should be treated as a verdict.
Start with your pathway
Your next step starts with what you have already done
Experience, projects, questions and goals are the starting point. Career Lab helps you understand them more clearly, put them into practice and turn them into actions for your professional development.
