Years 9-13 “Dacorum Careers Fair” Tuesday 24 November 2009

Dacorum Careers Fair – For parents of students in years 9 – 13 years

Please make a date in your diaries to visit a large careers event that will take place at the:
South Hill Centre
Cemetery Hill
Hemel Hempstead
HP1 1JF
Tuesday 24 November between 6.00pm and 8.30pm

There will be around 40 representatives from a wide variety of employers and training organisations, including Sir Robert McAlpine, Costco, Hertfordshire County Council, DSGI International, the University of Hertfordshire, local colleges and the armed forces. They will be able to talk to you about career opportunities in their sector and advise on qualifications, e.g. apprenticeships, diplomas, GCSE, AS, and A Levels, BTEC and degrees. They will also be able to talk to you about the necessary skills, personal qualities and work experience valued by their sectors.

All of this will help students be better prepared for work when the time comes. In the short term, it will also help inform students’ decisions about the subject choices that they are making, or will need to make, during the next few years.

Independent Personal Advisers from the Youth Connexions Service will also be available during the evening, to help students make sense of the information they receive.

During the event students and parents will also be able to attend talks on the following subjects: ‘Choosing a Course & Choosing a University’ by the University of Hertfordshire, and ‘Apprenticeships’ by the Hertfordshire Provider Network.

There is no charge for attending this event.

Should you want to find out any more information please email Carolyn Ashby, the Careers Co-ordinator at Cavendish & Astley Cooper Schools: Carolyn.ashby@hcs.co.uk
