Our career directions workshop is designed to get students thinking about their futures using both strength cards to explore their skills and our destinations charts to consider the world of work. This 1.5 hour workshop takes the students through their own career pack workbook as they complete a series of fun activities. Part of the session involves selecting from a choice of tasks to get them thinking about what stimulates us at work. Do we like working with things, people, ideas or information? The session culminates with a personality quiz that reveals different jobs they might like to explore.

I only have positive feedback! I enjoyed seeing the students start to explore their interests and realise there were so many possible avenues to go down. The sheets that were laid out on the ground gave them the perfect space to get stuck in and seek out their dream jobs.
 
All in all, it was a pleasure to be a part of, I hope we have you back in again soon.
