Can Career Guidance help me?
Professional help can provide a valuable catalyst, enabling people
at differing stages in their career to identify and move towards their
desired career goals:
- Choosing a career
- Changing career
- Developing their career
- Seeking a new challenge
- Returning to work after a period of absence
- Choosing examination subjects or an educational or training
course
- Reassessing options following redundancy or a period of unemployment
Having reviewed their circumstances with an impartial third party,
many people find they can make career decisions with increased confidence.
THE FOUR STAGES OF CAREER GUIDANCE
- Self-Assessment
Following a short initial discussion and gathering of background
information, you complete an agreed selection of occupational
tests and questionnaires, chosen to provide unbiased information
relevant to your individual circumstances.
- Identifying Options and Opportunities
At a subsequent meeting, the results of the questionnaires are
discussed. Possible options and opportunities for the future are
identified. A report detailing the information gathered via the
questionnaires and incorporating the discussion is provided.
- Personal Research
You now have time to research and explore possible options on
you own, developing career ideas and clarifying opportunities.
We assist by guiding you towards suitable sources of information,
including our career reference library.
- Decision-Making and Action Planning
At a final meeting, progress is reviewed jointly and a plan agreed
which identifies steps to be taken towards career goals. A supplementary
report outlining the main conclusions is provided.
In Conclusion
The Keil Centre Career Guidance Service aims to provide you with the
means to make your own career decisions and take control of your future
career direction, at your chosen pace.
