This article volunteers to give a relatively coherent description of the labour market program called “Fate Turning – Fate Forming” developed by the SouthTransdanubian Regional Labour Center (STRLC). We found it important to put the progress in context as much as possible, highlighting its’ real world labor market and rural developmental role. The specialty of this program is the nature of the training it provides, which is although not approved by the National Qualifications Register, it trains for specialties the target settlement is rationally in need of, not just give another “useless credential” to the persistently unemployed. We’d like to remark that the Faculty of Adult Education and Human Resources Development (FAEHRD) of University Pécs (UP) provides professional support in adult education to the FVM DAszK Csapó Dániel Trade School. This is justified by the fact, that the “Fate Turning – Fate Forming” program creates mainly heterogeneous study and work groups. A significant difference is present in the level of education, age, and the time spent away from studies and work. This labor market program could be expanded regionally and nationwide as well after more detailed research and evaluation, according to the expert opinion of STRLC and Agrokonsult. In order to achieve this goal, the Faculty of Adult Education and Human Resource Development of University Pécs provides full scientific and professional support.
