摘要：The present research was conducted to identify the impact of a training program which is based on developing vocational skills upon changing the orientations of female students towards vocations. In order to answer the study’s questions and to test the study’s hypotheses, the researchers built constructed (42) vocational skills. The researchers have also adopted a scale for female students’ orientations towards vocations. The validity and reliability that concerns the study’s instrument were both checked. The study’s sample consisted of (70) female students from the tenth grade. The female students were subjected to a prior scale to measure the vocational orientations. The study’s results indicated that the female students’ orientations - on the prior scale – were negative orientations towards (industrial, agricultural, business, hotel, and nursing)vocations, and the arithmetic mean was (2.18). There was a positive orientation towards the field of (home economics) and the arithmetic mean was (3.70). Female students were taught the vocational skills which were constructed. After that, the scale of orientations towards vocations was applied. The study concluded that the orientations of female students towards vocations changed to turn out positive orientations. For instance, the arithmetic mean of vocations in various vocational fields (such as Industrial, agricultural, business, hotel, nursing, and home economics) was (4.55). The study also concluded that female students did not have a sufficient vocational knowledge and awareness towards learning vocations before teaching them (42) vocational skills. In the light of the study’s results, the study concluded a group of recommendations. Keywords: Vocational Skills, Negative Orientations, Towards Vocations.
