In higher vocational study the company mentor plays a crucial role as the link between theoretical knowledge and the real working environment. Academia is particularly proud that the recipient of the award for the best company mentor in Slovenia is its own mentor, Marko Zavadlav.
His dedication to working with students, high professional standards and commitment to transferring knowledge into practice contribute significantly to the quality of education. He actively involves students in work processes, encourages independent thinking and helps them solve concrete professional challenges. He also plays an important role in diploma theses, giving students access to current cases from practice and guiding them towards solutions with real applied value.
Such mentoring makes study more practical, increases graduates' employability and strengthens cooperation between the college and industry. Academia believes that quality mentors from practice are one of the key foundations of modern, competitive and internationally comparable education, and congratulates Marko Zavadlav on his award.
