Career Experiences at Frank Chapman Education Centre

Career Experiences at Frank Chapman Education Centre

Young people face a number of challenges that can affect many areas of their life, such as their confidence, attendance and attainment at school, and their prospects of finding work.  There are 3 ways that we can help young people prepare for life beyond school.  They are:

 

  1. Every visit to a centre can be tailored to develop and practice the soft skills needed to thrive in the workplace, such as creativity, adaptability, leadership, problem solving skills, resilience, and communication techniques.  Reviewing and reflection at the end of each session helps translate the learning to lessons for life.
  2. Teams & Leaders:  designed to provide opportunities to explore, test and develop leadership techniques, with a focus on roles and responsibilities within a team.
  3. Accelerate:  Accelerate supports young people into employment or training by empowering them to develop life, social and employability skills; increase confidence, take part in a range of activities, and feel a sense of success in an unfamiliar environment.
