The perception of the world of work and professional careers and the development of child-orientated career management skills (CMS) require a holistic, interdisciplinary approach to the qualification of nursery school staff. WARBEKi can be integrated into existing curricula or offered as a separate programme. The (direct) target group for the programme is childcare staff (during studies, in training or further education). The aim is to promote important skills in this target group in order to open up the children's opportunities for experience, action and cognition. The (indirect) target group is children of pre-school age. The aim is to awaken children's motivation and ability for continuous and self-directed exploration at an early age in order to pedagogically counter fears of personal failure, social exclusion and cultural discrimination, among other things. Professional exploration by children has so far received little attention in science and practice. Other target groups are the teachers responsible for qualification (universities, educational institutions), parents, teachers in the elementary school sector and counsellors in education and vocation.
