Careers support and advice
Our courses are designed to improve your employment prospects, and we want all our students to develop the range of skills needed for success in their chosen careers. All courses include a Career Planning Agreement and activities that encourage you to analyse your interests and skills and match them with possible career options. Many of our courses include practical and relevant work experience, so you can develop your skills for employment, whatever career you choose.
