Help your students plan for exciting futures with our new look site

When things are changing so rapidly in the world of work it can be challenging to know where to start when you’re wanting to inspire young people about their future options. But we’re here to help with our newly re-launched careers site…

We’ve just re-launched our popular Get Career Confident website, which offers a wealth of free careers and progression advice and videos all presented in a bright, friendly and inviting style that’s both inspiring and easy to access.

Resources site-wide have been designed so that they can be used independently by young people or used as a springboard for discussion during careers sessions or lessons. They’re also ideal resources to point parents to.

On the website young people are supported through every stage of their careers and progression journey, whether they’re choosing options, applying for a university place or apprenticeship, or looking to make their first move into the world of work.

The site’s hundreds of resources are easy to discover across clearly defined website pages from Employer Videos through to dedicated downloads with advice on a wide range of topics including what do if you don’t get the results you’re hoping for. Across the vibrant new site young people can:

Be inspired by the wide range of different careers available throughout Sussex in our ‘See To Be’ videos here.  

Discover how to do everything from make an apprenticeship application to negotiate the UCAS clearing system or apply for student finance using our friendly and engaging ‘How To’ videos

Find out the kinds of questions that are useful to ask at careers fairs, university open days and job interviews on our handy downloads page

  • Be taken through how to write a CV that stands out in the crowd – also on our downloads page 
  • Discover the wide range of careers areas that they can consider working in so that they can start honing their options  
  • Get dedicated one-to-one careers support by talking with one of our qualified and friendly careers advisors using our Live Chat facility

We hope that you and your students find the new site easier to use and really inspiring! If you’re interested in finding out more about how you can use the resources on the site in an imaginative way, or are looking to find out more about the latest careers advice and guidance trends and resources, why not join one of our dedicated online Careers Leads & CEIAG Advisors sessions?

Our next session is on Thursday 11th May from 4pm to 5pm. To sign up or find out more go to our new look CPD page on our Learning4LifeSusssex site or contact our Get Career Confident Programme Manager, Charlie Field.
