01
Differentiated Programme
Career Central offers schools the ability to differentiate the programme for different year levels. This means that year 9’s will see pages/modules relevant to them and as they move through to year 12 more and more pages can become visible. Schools also have the ability to customise what appears on each page which not only allows for differentiation based on age but also for tailored customisation to suit your school culture.
02
School Wide Careers Education
Every school is unique, however there are often opportunities for schools to make time for students to create and update their Career Central profiles.
Career Central empowers non-careers staff to have career discussions with students or to access information about the students intentions for academic conferencing.
03
Continuity
When staff change at a school it is easy for information and knowledge to become lost. Career Central provides a place for all career related information to be stored. This means new staff can pick up where the previous person left off. Student career profiles provide information about students interests and intentions making it easier to build a relationship and providing a starting point for career and academic discussions.
