As the exam period draws to a close, many students and parents are looking towards 2019!

With Early Commencement beginning next week many students are looking forward to starting a brand ‘new’ year and different programs and subjects – an exciting time!  Other students are planning their new lives post-school and everything that encompasses; work, further study, GAP year, volunteering… but whatever is decided for all students, families will be having some interesting conversations.

As has been talked about before, family is one of the biggest influences on the choices students make for their future careers and pathways.  It is so important that these conversations start early – even if only in a small, informal manner.  It is through chatting about careers that students can begin to understand what they are interested in, where their skills lie and what is required of them in the workplace.

A recent article (VDC News) looked at the recent report from Victoria University’s Mitchell Institute, which looks at “…how capabilities can be cultivated from the early years, through schooling and beyond”.  Key capabilities have been identified in the report, that have “the potential both to prepare students for an uncertain world and to enhance enjoyment, engagement and achievement throughout learning”.  Some of these capabilities are lifelong and include life and learning skills and creative thinking, personal and social capability, and ethical and intercultural understanding.

Conversations with family and family friends can help students to begin to form their own opinions, look at what is important to them and most importantly, begin to know how to develop the skills they will need for the future.

As we all know, career education is a lifelong process, we never stop learning and changing, and having skills to meet the challenges and changes life throws at us, is so important for each individual’s career future.

Keep up the chats and share your experiences of your career path, they are all very different and wonderfully interesting!
