ENIn recent years the Lithuanian general education institutions purposefully direct students to choose higher schools and university studies while the vocational training institutions are usually preferred by students with poor academic performance, behavioural, communication and socialization problems. This article defines the aims and opportunities of cooperation between the Lithuanian general education and vocational training institutions to achieve purposeful vocational decision of the students. The cooperation between the general education and vocational training institutions is based on the same aim, namely, to help the general education student purposefully choose a profession, promote mutual partnership between institutions and the potential exchange of resources. The cooperation between the general education and vocational training institutions could help to cope with the challenges encountered at career education, furthermore, it is associated with the implementation of students' practical skills. The possibilities for cooperation have been determined: the integration into the vocational training process (apprenticeship, technology school leaving exam, modular programmes), education on the premises (sectoral practical training centres), cooperation with employers as well as with the foreign partners.The qualitative study, based on the possibilities of cooperation between educational institutions, aims at students'vocational decision. Informants working in the field of vocational guidance and counselling consider the cooperation opportunities between the general education and vocational training institutions appropriate to allow students to purposefully choose a profession.The findings of the study emphasize the impact of simulation and practical activities not only on the vocational guidance activities, but also on the entire educational process in schools. The practice-based introduction to the occupation as well as the necessity of monitoring, simulation and practical performance justify the need for cooperation opportunities between education institutions to improve the quality and efficiency of their performance.
