Money, Work + Career Starter.

A set of lessons and activities to cover the basics to avoid your schools' past students asking "why didn't I learn this at school?"

Sort it covers 3 main areas:

√ Money:

Basic financial literacy is fundamental to life after school. We believe that having a solid level of financial understanding will empower students long after they leave school.

√ Work:

Career Management skills such as resume writing, interview skills and knowing your workplace rights are critical life-long skills. Most learn through trial and error and whilst experience is important there are many tools and lessons that can ensure students have a strong foundation to embark upon their employment journey.

√ Career Starter:

Getting to know ourselves is a fundamental component of Career development. In this unit we cover a range of tools and lessons that support students on this lifelong journey of self discovery. We also start to give students an understanding of the Future of work including how approach building and developing important skills and capacities for their futures.

Next Step Navigator

The Next Step Navigator; focuses on 4 key Modules.

Uncover your potential, Explore Possibilities, Thrive in your Career and Create your Future.

The Next Step Navigator framework at it's heart has 4 main aims:

√ To empower: to provide students with the tools and knowledge to gain an understanding of themselves on a diverse range of levels.

√ To educate: Career management skills in addition to personal development are critical for a fulfilled life. It's our mission to ensure that all students have the opportunity to develop these invaluable life lessons.

√ To support: We get that Career decision making and conversations can be complex and often overwhelming. We aim to to simplify complex concepts and information to ensure students gain clarity and reassurance about their futures.

√ To inspire: We firmly believe that every individual possesses unique talents, attributes, and purpose in life. Our aspiration is for every student to approach their future with optimism and embrace life with unwavering determination and passion. We do this by incorporating important positive psychology frameworks and learnings throughout the modules.

It opened my eyes to a world of possibilities and made me appreciate the options available to me. A useful program that you can go back to at any time if you need a hand figuring yourself and your future out.
