The Ready program is aimed at 9th graders who have not yet decided in which area they want to further their knowledge in secondary school.

We work with young people in this transition phase, facilitating experiences within the framework of group dynamics (exercises, games), and also adopting an individualised approach through the application of psychotechnical, vocational, personality and coaching tests.

The READY programme promotes self-awareness, motivation and academic success.

Ready Testimonials

"We know that deciding what to study in the 10th year of schooling is not always easy. Students and parents feel anxious since the options are as many as the doubts. The approach of SHAPE YOUR FUTURE is robust in the process of self-knowledge. Avoiding the traditional individualistic approach, of the endless psychotechnical tests, it prefers group dynamics, challenging the participants to get to know each other from other perspectives. Self-awareness is developed through the use of several frameworks. We particularly liked he final report and presentation of the results, as it was clear and enlightening. The path is taken at a steady pace."

Sofia and Pedro, Leonor's parents

"As a person who has experienced the project created by Anabela, I especially recommend it to anyone who is undecided about what the path they want to follow, and want to get to know themselves better.
It's dynamic, fun and in the end we discover a lot about ourselves. It helped me a lot and also made me look from another point of view in some situations."

Leonor, 9th Grade

"We highly recommend the programme. Anabela has a vast experience in education and coaching, the right frameworks to understand the uniqueness of each person and how that uniqueness can be translated into possible professional paths. In our case, it was very important to participate in the programme, because it helped our children to know themselves better, while giving guidance on the different areas available."

Teresa and Gonçalo, parents of Vera and Vasco

"For me, having participated in the shape your future programme helped me a lot, because without it I probably I wouldn't know what I wanted to do with my future and/or what to pursue. It was very interesting and not at all what I was expecting. I was expecting to have to write a lot, to answer a lot of questions, but it was nothing like that. We had lots of interesting activities to make us think and to see the difference between each one of us. It definitely helped me a lot to orient myself for my future career and also to get to know myself better."

Vasco, 9th year

"It was a unique and incredible experience that I will take with me for life. It helped me to know not only the different areas but also to know myself better. It also helped me to feel less insecure and prepare what I want for the future. I also enjoyed interacting with the other colleagues. The sessions were fun, effective and creative."

Vera, 9th year

Anabela's innovative programme comes at the right time, both for Inês and for us as parents, since it was a time of decisions. The parents should not influence the choices, should trust the process and respect the uniqueness and choices of the children, Inês achieved this through the activities developed throughout the programme. In fact, Anabela managed to capture/understand the essence of Inês and showed us the way to the next step."

Susana, Ines's mother

"Anabela led us to do the activities naturally. I got to understand my interests better, to know what was best for me and to understand what I didn't like.
My choices have become easier, I can now move forward with more confidence."

Inês, 9th grade

"At the end of each workshop, my son was always excited about the activities, the challenges and the conversations. I never felt there was the pressure of a class or a doctor's appointment. The report produced is extremely thorough and easy to understand. It outlines a vocational profile, but devotes a substantial part to the personality profile and strength of character, which are key at school and work, but also on family and social relationships. Shape Your Future, through Anabela, was able to capture characteristics of my son and his behaviour in a group, which surprised me a lot. Parents do not always have the desirable distance to help their children. Objectivity and focus are essential. The workshops, the conclusions and the report guarantee that essence."

Leonor, mother of Salvador

FAQs

  • This programme is aimed at young people who are in the 8th and 9th grade, and want to decide what area they should study in secondary school, keeping in mind the profession they might have and what academic path to follow.

  • The programme is designed to help young people make better decisions throughout their lives, through a process of self-knowledge that allows them to better understand who they are, what their talents are and their vocation.

    At the end of the programme they will know which area of secondary school they want to pursue and the subjects they should choose, so that they can apply for the university courses they have identified. In addition, they will have developed the ability to make decisions based on who they really are.

  • This programme is different both because of the methodology used and the team that developed it.

    The methodology combines the benefits of group work with a 100% personalised approach. In the group component we develop various dynamics and challenges that allow young people to get to know each other better and understand the impact they have on others. In the individual component we reflect on the results of the tests and dynamics that took place in the group sessions and explore other dimensions that allow young people to identify the right academic path for them.

    The team is composed by Débora Martins, psychologist, Anabela Possidónio, Coach, and Marta Andaluz, education consultant. This team brings together a wide corporate experience in different sectors, companies, and countries, the experience of the university world and respective admission processes and psychology.

    With all these experiences we are able to accompany your children in different dimensions, including the identification of their vocation, the professions in which they can be more successful and happier, and the academic choices they should make at each moment.

  • Yes. The programme includes various tests including vocational, personality, values and psychometric tests.

  • In the group sessions we develop various dynamics that allow young people to get to know themselves better, both through themselves and through the eyes of others.

    We also foster the development of skills considered critical in the 21st century: empathy, tolerance, active listening, critical thinking, creativity and teamwork skills.

    In these sessions, we also discuss how the world will evolve, the sustainable development goals and the impact on professions.

    The group sessions are very dynamic and invite young people to reflect and debate, motivating them to integrate different dimensions in their decision-making process.

  • The individual sessions allow us to detail some of the information we gathered during the group sessions, as well as exploring dimensions that will have an impact on the young people's choice of field they decide to study.

    During these sessions we also explore potential courses and professions, clarify any doubts they may have and help them in the process of choosing subjects throughout secondary school.

    The one-to-one sessions are also an opportunity for us to help them unlock some issues, as well as consider options they hadn't considered before.

  • O programa tem uma duração média 11 horas, dividido por 4 sessões.

  • The program consists of 1 online testing session, 1 face-to-face group session, and 2 individual online sessions.

    In the last session, the report is delivered, and it is important that the parents are present in the second half of the session.

  • Os horários das sessões de grupo são fixos e estão disponíveis no site. De momento, temos workshops maioritariamente aos sábados, entre as 9:30 e as 16:00, mas deverá consultar o horário da edição do curso em que se inscreve.

    Individual sessions are 1 hour long and scheduled according to the availability of the young people and the Shape Your Future team.

  • Cada grupo tem, no máximo, 10 jovens.
    Este número permite-nos ter dinâmicas mais ricas e de maior partilha nas sessões de grupo, sem que seja comprometida a personalização.

  • No. The group sessions must always be done with the same group, since the way the sessions are constructed presupposes that relationships of trust and knowledge are developed between its members.

  • The team is composed by Débora Martins, psychologist, Anabela Possidónio, Coach, and Marta Andaluz, education consultant. This team gathers a wide corporate experience in different sectors, companies, and countries; the experience of the university world and respective admission processes and psychology.

    With all these experiences we are able to accompany your children in different dimensions, including the identification of their vocation, the professions in which they can be more successful and happier, and the academic choices they should make at each moment.

  • The final report includes a description of the personality, a summary of all the tests that were taken throughout the programme, identification of potential pathways to follow, a recommendation of the area of study in secondary school and its subjects, as well as links to identified courses/universities.
