   This course is now full.

   Exploration of the context of careers work in a Higher Education setting. The course content will vary from year to year to ensure it remains relevant.

   This three day residential course is intended for all careers service staff whether new or experienced who would like to explore the context in which they are working. This course may be particularly appropriate for those moving into careers work in HE from other sectors.

   By the end of the course, participants should be able to:
   - define the current issues facing HE institutions recognising their impact on the work of careers staff
   - describe the theoretical perspectives underpinning careers work and relate these to models of delivery
   - recognise the skills necessary to respond to challenge and start to develop those appropriate to their role
   - develop a personal training action plan
