One to one career planning 

Personalised Career Programme (PCP)
When you need one to one focused and tailored career discussion, a PCP is the answer and it follows on from a Career Review

  • There is a need for both you and us to be well prepared prior to discussions
  • By the time the Review is complete - we have a very good grasp of your concerns 
  • Core issues influencing career progress or choices are aired and agenda drawn up
  • We can be sure to not waste time on basic information gathering once we meet
Details for joining a PCP are provided once you have completed a Career Review.

Why a Career Review first

Many people ask if they can jump straight to the Personal Career Programme. The answer is no. 
This is because prior to attending the face to face PCP it is vital that both you and we have done some structured preparation.

Without the Review the first half or more of the PCP is wasted on very basic information gathering. In addition some people do not need a PCP after a Review because the Review has been enough.

The Review ensures that we both come to any face to face meeting with agreed and shared viewpoints on your career, a clear agenda and some good ideas of where to start. It ensures that we hit the ground running at that meeting and make the best use of our time together - i.e. in action planning and resolving career concerns.
