Career guidance essentials - personal

Ever wondered where to start in seeking career guidance?

The key to procuring good career support is in the preparation you do for yourself before making contact with anyone!

 

All meetings benefit from either or both parties having done some preparation first.

 

CGET-personal workbook gives you a way of doing some homework and constructive thinking about

• what you need from the meeting
• what your expectations are and whether they are realistic
• who you are approaching and why
• which aspect of career support you most need (there are six and it is very easy to assume you need one when in fact you desperately require another!)

The CGET-personal workbook is not the Career Review workbook - these are complimentary but have different purposes. Both are useful in their own way in the overall approach to better career planning.

CGET workbook or Review workbook?

 

Which you should start with or choosing between them depends on what you are wanting to achieve, how much time you wish to spend and whom you are going to be seeking career support from.

 

For example - if you are in urgent need of independent career support from us - we would recommend the Career Review workbook first. It takes 6 plus hours to complete and can upgrade to our distant learning Career Review Programme (which requires listening to an audio element and reading our Career Guide)

 

If you are very pushed for time and plan to see your own tutor in the near future - we would recommend the CGET-personal workbook first. It takes 1-2 hours.

 

If you want to start steadily and ensure you are doing as much learning about career planning as you can before entering into any career discussion - then start with the CGET and progress to the Review workbook.
