The Careers Team reflects the College career focussed strategy on its delivery of Careers Education Information Advice Guidance (CEIAG) by providing learners with the opportunity to seek CEIAG and support that is unbiased, timely and relevant to the choices which they make and their individual career goals whether that be higher or further education, apprenticeships, traineeships, or employment.
The work is undertaken by the qualified and experienced Careers Team who work in collaboration with teaching and student support staff. This is measured against Gatsby benchmarks, the Careers Enterprise Company Compass tool, and the Matrix quality standard for Careers provision.
