The purpose of this study is to identify the significance of KooBO-Z(Kooperative Berufsorientierung für neu Zugewanderte : Cooperative Vocational Orientation for Immigrants), which provides career development support for young people who need official language education in preparatory classes in Baden-Württemberg in Germany. As a result, the following four points were identified. First, because career education in schools has already been systematized, the system has been established in which young people who need official language education can receive the same career education as German students by learning German in preparatory classes and moving on to regular classes. Second, KooBO-Z, which is implemented independently in BW, provides early direct experience with regard to the transition from school to work. Through these practices, these young people can have the opportunity to acquire German and promote communication. Third, by utilizing the operational know-how of KooBO(Kooperative Berufsorientierung ; Cooperative Vocational Orientation), which was implemented for regular classes before the start of KooBO-Z, the scope of implementation has been expanded to include young people in need of official language support. Fourth, KooBO-Z has the potential to be implemented more effectively by linking it to 2P (Potential and Perspective), which is a tool for analyzing the competencies of immigrant youth. This tool will make KooBO-Z not only a one-time implementation, but also a series of activities to support career development both inside and outside of school.
