To intensify professional competencies of the vocational training professionals seeking a more qualified practical training in the KPVM practical training center. The quality of professional teaching is one of the most important questions in Lithuania, and in the European Union. Most jobless people aren’t qualified persons and are not ready for the labour market. The requirement of high-qualified specialists is increasingly rising. At that moment, in Klaipeda region the professions of a car mechanic and a car electrician are very popular and are in a great demand. These specialists, especially of high quality, are always wanted. The inquest of the owners of car repair enterprises showed, that their activities are constantly expanding, their services are popular but it is difficult to find suitable specialists. Therefore, the most of the surveyed approved the schools’ struggle for better quality of these specialists training. Unfortunately, vocational schools still have not enough possibilities to prepare qualified professionals mostly because of the lack of students’ practical skills training. Students need to have more real working conditions with real cars. A new practical training center with new training and diagnostic equipment will be opened in our school in December, 2014.
