We're passionate about making sure that every young person has access to the best information, advice and opportunities that will shape their future, regardless of who or where they are. Our mission is to create the place to make this happen.
And we're not alone. Our network is growing rapidly.
What We Do
We partner with stakeholders in the careers ecosystem and use our expertise to deliver on their priorities. Everything we do is aimed at supporting young people and is always underpinned by our digital careers platform, Start.
Through Start we help schools, colleges, local authorities and employers to meet their priorities when it comes to engaging with young people about their future careers. Start is a unique platform with unrivalled reach, tools and data insights to give our partners a genuine solution to achieve their objectives and impact positively on the future choices of the young people they engage with.
Schools & Colleges
Embed a digital solution as part of your broader careers provision to accelerate progress towards the Gatsby benchmarks and support student transition from school and college to employment.
Local Authorities
Improve the connectivity between your region’s schools, colleges, universities and employers by connecting careers information for young people with local opportunities and inclusive growth ambitions.
Employers
Reach thousands of students in schools and colleges to positively influence and inform their choices whilst supporting a wide and diverse range of future talent through their educational journey.
Personal guidance - an enriched virtual model.
There's a growing expectation amongst students that at least part of their careers provision will be accessed digitally and young people today are more capable and in favour of self-servicing their information needs than any generation before them.
Time spent with a careers adviser, however, is an essential experience for all students so that they can receive advice and guidance that is relevant to them. Start significantly enhances the face-to-face guidance model for everyone involved in the process - from preparing students and identifying those most in need of further support, to recording and evidencing the outcomes of guidance interviews.
As a matrix Standard accredited organisation, we support and supply qualified careers guidance professionals to schools across the country and train them on how to use Start to enhance and extend the impact of their work.
