Learners have different career guidance needs at different stages. Opportunities for advice and support need to be tailored to the needs of each learner. A college’s careers programme should embed equality and diversity considerations throughout.
A college’s careers programme should actively seek to challenge stereotypical thinking and raise aspirations.
Colleges should keep systematic records of the individual advice given to each learner, and subsequent agreed decisions.
The records of advice given should be integrated with those given at the previous stage of the learner’s education (including their secondary school) where these are made available. Records should begin to be kept from the first point of contact or from the point of transition.
All learners should have access to these records to support their career development. Colleges should collect and maintain accurate data for each learner on their education, training or employment destinations.
