鷹越計劃

Every young person can soar to new heights

計劃宗旨

The Variety Falcon Programme is a unique, sustainable 2-tier youth development initiative providing local 16–21 year olds with personal and career development support, with high-impact mentoring at its core.

The Falcon Programme is one-of-a-kind in the range of factors and skills it addresses:

導師指導

透過與訓練有素、經驗豐富的導師配對，為學員提供指導，以支援和引導學員的職業生涯發展。

發展技能

為提高學員在就業初期的求職能力，計劃為學員提供系統性的課程，促進他們的技能及個人發展，並為他們提供心理健康培訓。

拓闊行業視野

透過認識僱主、參加招聘會和行業講座，提升學員的就業抱負，增加他們對不同行業的認識。

實戰經驗

為學員提供機會參與實習、領袖訓練、義工服務和其他團體活動，從而幫助學員提升自信，活學活用。

建立人際網絡

提供機會讓學員與僱主、導師和其他學員互動，學習處理人際關係，鍛煉拓展人脈的能力。

A 2-tier programme addresses the critical needs of this key stage of development:

1-Year Training

Series of classroom training, together with practical industry experiences and networking, to broaden their understanding
and horizons prior to many key decision-making during the
16-21 age years.

2-Years Mentoring & coaching

Customised 1-to-1 mentoring and group coaching as an in-depth career-life development support to youth aged 18–21 to prepare for successful transition to work life.

Branch-Out Programme: Young Falcons

A 1-year programme to help secondary school students develop soft skills and better understand the future of work.

We have added more partner schools to Young Falcon which was added in summer 2021. The Young Falcon program is for Secondary Form 4 – Form 5 students, during which they take part in soft skill development and career exploration activities. Upon successful completion, they can apply for the full Falcon Programme. Visits have been organised for the Young Falcons to facilitate their understanding of different commercial sectors in Hong Kong, and to enable them to experience various workplaces.

Partner Schools

I have learnt to persist, to give back to society and to adopt a positive attitude towards things and people. I have become more positive about HK. I used to believe that my academic results were not good enough for me to become a doctor or lawyer, and so I would be useless. The Falcon Programme has helped me understand there are many more pathways and possibilities. Now I know that when I work hard, and with my interests in mind, I could do well
– Mentee

I feel grateful to get to know my mentee, and we can learn from each other. I also got the chance to develop my soft skills, such as active listening. My mentee’s passionate character has reignited my own passion as well.
