Summary

Career education has moved towards learning to manage and take responsibility for personal career development before even leaving school. The Career and Enterprise course equips students with the tools to head confidently into an uncertain future. It begins with recognising individual skills and talents, and moves on to using this understanding to find work and keep it. All aspects of work and workplaces are explored, from entry level to working globally. Changing technology, employment patterns and economic restructuring are realities of the rapidly changing world of work students will be entering. Learning to deal with constant change through adaptability, enterprise and lifelong learning are vital elements of the course, along with exploration of social, cultural and environmental issues.
