Reviews

A timely resource that should be essential reading for anyone involved in leading, delivering and developing programmes of careers education in schools and colleges. It is both a textbook with extensive references to sources of further reading, and a practical handbook with useful planning and review tools and suggestions for activities with young people.a At its core is good practice, underpinned by theory and informed by research.a All recently appointed careers coordinators should read this book but more experienced practitioners will also find the final chapters challenging and inspiring. - David Andrews OBE, University of Cambridge Faculty of Education, UK This book is the perfect companion for anyone interested in extending their professionalism. Beginning with an introduction to the theoretical underpinning of career learning and development, it goes on to offer a myriad of ideas for classroom practice and is full of helpful hints for improving day to day delivery.a There is something here for everyone at any stage of their role and responsibility for career learning and development. - Barbara McGowan, Senior Fellow, National institute for Career Education and Counselling (NICEC)
