One of the most important questions that a young person has to ask himself in the course of his life, at the latest at the end of his school career, is: Which job suits me? It is often difficult for students to choose a branch or a path. Would you like to start your professional life straight away, go to university, do internships? Which job, which course, which internship?
In order to prepare a little better, a career day took place at the GKD at the end of November, on which various alumni of our school presented their training and their jobs to the students. Disentis Alumni President Dr. Alexandra Albert-Wicki and Rector Tom Etter were also very pleased that numerous "alumni" had agreed to do so.
