TET

:"This article is about the Finnish work practice program. For the Vietnamese festival, see Tết. For the medical technology, see transcutaneous energy transmission."

TET/PRAO ("Työelämään tutustuminen" in Finnish language, "Praktisk arbetslivsorientering" in Swedish, lit. "visit to the working life") is a part of the Finnish primary schooling system where students practice working at a real working place.

The duration of the practice is two weeks, and it takes place in the 8th or 9th grade, depending on the school. Each student can choose his/her working place independently, and has to sign a contract with both his/her school and the working place. Often, students end up working in one of their relatives' or friends' working places.

The students working in the program are normally entitled to one free meal per day, but they receive no salary or allowance. The costs for the working place are paid by the Finnish state.

The purpose of the program is to introduce students to the working environments of today's world. In Vantaa, Finland TET students normally have a 6 hour work day, with only one required lunch break, duration 30 minutes. Rules require that no heavy lifting (over 15 kg) be normal labour in the work practice, and there are other specifications. (Vantaa).
