The students thought that it would have to wait until at least after Christmas before the Ministry of Magic would systematically sort out the plan for the future "Professional Title Examination" in the wizarding world. This was almost based on the officials' estimation of the fastest efficiency.
However, as soon as the owl that delivered Friday's letter flew away from the milk jug, there was a commotion in the auditorium.
They unfolded newspapers - all newspapers, whether it was "Daily Prophet", "Wizard Weekly", "The Quibbler"... or even special newspapers such as "Transfiguration Today" and "Potions Frontier" - in the latest
The prominent cover is occupied by a large photo of Cornelius Fudge and Albus Dumbledore standing together, exchanging documents to sign.
The caption next to the picture uniformly states:
[A landmark collaboration between the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts]
[Albus Dumbledore takes over——]
[The first professional title certification in the British wizarding world, the general person in charge of training]
"Professor Dumbledore - professional title...certified training?"
Charlie Weasley frowned, and the half-eaten piece of bread slipped from his fingertips, "What does this mean?"
As a "Master of Magic student" who was called back to school after working for more than a year, he had an innate sense of foreboding about this word. It was like seeing his mother reading a letter after getting into trouble at school.
.
Ginny, who was sitting next to him, unfolded the newspaper, selected the key content and read:
"After a long discussion, the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts decided to carry out further education reform, using Hogwarts education as the starting point to plan and sort out a series of complete and orderly professional title systems to solve the employment problems in today's society.
issues and promote the stable development of magical society, which is also the long-term vision of the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts..."
"'As the times progress, traditional knowledge begins to lag behind and become out of touch.' Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge said, 'But this is not because of the slack in school education, but because of the lack of education from school students to professionals.
Skills training, in the future wizarding world, Hogwarts may assume more important education and guidance responsibilities than ever before...'"
"According to the speech of Minister Cornelius Fudge, the British wizarding community is expected to launch a preliminary pilot of [professionalization] in Diagon Alley, London, in September next year. Some special industries must hold certain qualifications to continue to operate (industry list and
Please see the appendix on the last page for the required qualifications). Non-compliant stores and employees may face compulsory training, suspension of business for rectification and other risks..."
"Special industry? Qualifications?" Charlie turned his head curiously, ready to flip through the newspaper in Ginny's hand.
"Wait, we haven't finished reading yet!" Ginny pretended to bite, frightened away Charlie's hand, and continued reading.
"——Considering the stability of social order, Hogwarts has started the first round of corresponding training courses this school year, and invited a group of outstanding graduates from the past to return to school for further study, ensuring that a smooth transition can be completed in the early stages of the pilot..."
Ginny raised her head from the newspaper and glanced at her brothers who were listening intently to the newspaper.
Except for Bill, who works at the Gringotts goblins, even the two brothers Fred and George put down their knives and forks and looked at her seriously. As for Percy Weasley, he even read the newspaper.
He listened with a serious face.
Percy will enter seventh grade next September, and he will not miss this important information as he is determined to join the Ministry of Magic.
"In addition, the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts will also determine which subjects are eligible to be included in the first batch of professional title training subjects in the magical society based on the pilot situation in the next year - the judging criteria will be based on social job vacancies,
The senior investigator's teaching quality assessment and the teaching results of the first batch of students are comprehensively considered in three aspects."
"Dolores Jane Umbridge, Deputy Minister of Magic and Associate Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, will complete the corresponding assessment as a senior investigator appointed by the Ministry of Magic. The assessment will be carried out at the same time as this announcement is issued.
Get started. As the Ministry of Magic's Senior Investigator, Ms. Umbridge will have an in-depth understanding of various subjects and students, and make recommendations on behalf of the Ministry of Magic..."
"Senior Investigator? Professor Umbridge? How could it be her..."
Ginny suddenly stopped reading here, with an unhappy look on her face.
"What's wrong, Ginny?" Percy asked, frowning, "Do you think there's anything wrong with this?"
"Oh, Percy - because this is not pleasant news..."
Fred sighed and fiddled with the grilled scallops on the plate in a depressed manner, "You should have heard some rumors about Professor Umbridge, right? The Defense Against the Dark Arts class is now in the first to fourth years.
She is the professor who teaches us, and she knows how to ask us to copy the text during class, and she also teaches the extremely boring defense theory..."
"That's not the scariest thing. She simply treats us as five or six-year-old children. Can you imagine how she goes to class?"
George said painfully, holding his throat and imitating the high-pitched voice, whispering softly.
"Children, come and say with me, 'We cannot release attack magic on our own initiative.'" "Oh, dear, you must raise your hands before speaking. Only in this way can you be a good student." "To answer the question, say 'OK'
'Professor Umbridge'..."
"That's enough, George, I don't want to throw up on the dinner table—"
Ginny shuddered, kicked George who was imitating Umbridge's words, and gave him a fierce look.
"All in all, no one in our first grade likes her. If it weren't for Professor Lupin, I would even put the Defense Against the Dark Arts class directly into the most annoying category...compared to Professor Snape
Regarding Potions, what that woman Umbridge teaches is simply rubbish. Fortunately, it seems that her scope of review should not include us."
Except for Elena and Hermione, most of the lower class students absolutely hate Umbridge the most.
There is no doubt that the word "politician" is evident in her, with rigid rules, retarded education, dogmatic instruction, and boring copying teaching... Umbridge has single-handedly raised the standards of other colleagues.
Overall rating.
"On the other hand, Charlie and Percy, you will probably have a headache later."
Ginny turned her head to look at her brothers, flicked the newspaper in her hand, and showed a gloating smile.
"According to what is said above, you should all take part in the 'professional title assessment' this semester, and you will also have the opportunity to have in-depth exchanges with Professor Umbridge. Percy, you have to hold on to the bottom line..."
"You little girl, it's only been less than three months, how did you learn so much nonsense?"
Percy Weasley frowned and knocked Ginny on the head slightly angrily.
Ever since Ginny came to Hogwarts, it seemed as if she had opened up some kind of strange world. The original timid image of a good girl disappeared in less than half a month, and was replaced by an increasingly witch-like form - in fact
, the girls in the lower grades seem to be developing in this direction, and as a contender for the next president of the Student Union, Percy is deeply uneasy about this.
only……
Percy Weasley's eyes lingered on the table next door for a moment, then he looked back helplessly.
Anyway, he will graduate in one year, and there is no need to provoke the silver-haired female devil at this time. The job of the prefect and the student union president is only to assist the professors in restraining and guiding the students, not to commit suicide on their own initiative.
Regarding the influence of Miss Elena Kaslana, Professor Dumbledore will definitely handle it properly.
"Ugh...Bill, Charlie...Percy bullied me again..."
Before Percy could regain his attention, Ginny quickly covered her forehead and cried to the side with tears in her eyes.
Now, unlike last semester, Percy is no longer the "Boss Weasley" in Hogwarts. After being reminded by Head Coach Granger, Ginny quickly found the secret to restraining Percy——
Just complain to the other two brothers.
Of course, this method is limited to Ginny Weasley.
George and Fred had encouraged Ron to imitate them once before, and Ron was so angry that he ignored them for a week.
"Percy, just say it a little bit, don't do anything."
Bill Weasley coughed lightly, patted Percy's shoulder helplessly, leaned over and spoke softly.
"Ginny knows about you and Peyrol. She now has more than one piece of information. Whether it's George, Fred, or your daily whereabouts, they are all under the control of this little witch...
…I suggest that you pamper Ginny a little more in the future. You know that the women in our family, well, are not easy to mess with in the past, present or future…”
Unlike several other Weasley children, Bill, who was employed by Gringotts Wizarding Bank, knew too many secrets.
As a B-class personnel of the SCP Foundation, especially a core researcher who participated in the "Dark Lord (Broken) Soul Anatomy Research Project", he is very aware of how powerful Elena Kaslana is in Hogwarts.
Danger.
On the other hand, within the foundation, no employee can query the details of the previous layer of encrypted content.
Hermione Granger, Luna Lovegood, Hannah Abbott... these names are all ordinary Hogwarts students in the foundation's internal searchable information, or to be more precise, B
This is what you can see about the identity of senior personnel.
This means that their real information is at least A-level, or even higher-level confidential information.
After all, if we simply infer from the perspective of combat ability, Miss Hannah is definitely A-level. Miss Granger, who has always been on par with Elena in terms of grades, is still a mystery for the time being, but she is definitely not an ordinary second grader.
Students, as for Miss Lovegood... she was the first preschool student to enroll at Hogwarts in hundreds of years.
Bill Weasley even wondered whether there might be O5-level members among the other three "ladies".
Therefore, since he learned that Ginny had joined the Hogwarts freshman team and had a close relationship with the head coach Hermione, Bill was very worried that one day he would see little Ginny take out a piece of A-class member's identity during a mission.
Card.
"...This is really outrageous, how many qualifications are required to tame a fire dragon?!"
At this moment, Charlie Weasley's exclamation interrupted Bill's thoughts.
I saw that Charlie had already taken the "Daily Prophet" which was obviously thicker than usual from Ginny, turned to the appendix on the last page, and rubbed one of the lines in disbelief, as if he wanted to wipe it off the newspaper.
Go the same.
[Fire Dragon Tamer: Professional Title and Qualification Requirements]
[Level 1 Breeder of Magical Creatures], [Advanced Pilot License], [Senior Muggle Researcher]...
The total of zero and zero required at least seven or eight corresponding qualification certifications, which made Charlie feel as if the people behind the Ministry of Magic who formulated these professional title plans could target him. He just wanted to raise a dragon with peace of mind, why was it so difficult?
!
"I took a closer look, and the fire dragon trainer seems to be a [senior professional title]..."
Percy Weasley pushed up his glasses, pointed at the small print on the newspaper, and said thoughtfully.
"The qualifications for domesticating this kind of gregarious, 5X-level magical creatures should be the most difficult in the field of magical animals, second only to special professional titles such as [Special Potion Master]. It is not incomprehensible that the requirements are high. I don't think so.
What I’m curious about is, senior Muggle researcher, this series of job title requirements is a bit too much..."
"Obviously, it's probably a new professional title derived from Muggle Studies."
Charlie said dejectedly, looking across other posts, most of which were related to magical beasts.
The only difference is whether it is [Advanced], [Intermediate] or [Beginner].
"If dad were here, he would be very happy, but I didn't choose Muggle Studies as a course since my 1st year! Oh my god - do I have to make up the lessons from scratch? Why do I need to understand Muggle studies to raise a fire dragon?
melon?!"
"Be objective, Charlie, this course may not be necessary...Professor Quirrell's course still needs to be accepted."
Bill Weasley patted his brother on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile.
"Look, here is the (to be determined) content. If this course does not pass the review of the Ministry of Magic, then it may not be able to appear as an independent subject that can assess professional titles for the time being. Then you only need to complete the .Ls
Just take the basic written test - you see, it is specifically noted here that an excellent Ls is equivalent to an intermediate professional title."
"But, what I need is advanced..." Charlie Weasley smiled bitterly.
"In that case, you may have to pray that Professor Quirrell can pass the review of the 'Senior Investigator', otherwise you may have to stay in Hogwarts until the acceptance is passed, or you may ask Scarman later
Professor De? Isn’t that your idol all along? Didn’t you have a private communication with Mr. Scamander during this time? If you go and ask..."
"It's useless. The qualification requirements for each position will be determined by the top wizards in each field..."
Charlie sighed helplessly, put down the newspaper in his hand, and said helplessly.
"Don't you think that the establishment of the basic qualifications for fire dragon trainers will not go through Mr. Scamander? In the field of magical animals, there is no wizard who is more knowledgeable and authoritative than the author of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them"
Alright?"
"...Actually, okay."
Bill moved his lips slightly, shrugged his shoulders and did not continue to persuade.
In the future, the magical world will inevitably have close exchanges with the non-magical world, and it would be a good thing for Charlie to learn more about Muggles.
