Even though Autumn is here, it’s not too late to click onto a new career. We understand that not everyone has their career mapped out in front of them, and that is perfectly normal.
So, what are your next steps? This blog looks at some of the options available to you and provides a few hints and tips on what to do next.
Firstly, don’t panic, there is always a solution. The first step is to understand what your strengths are and how you enjoy learning. Do you prefer small classes for instance, or a mix of online and classroom learning? Are you easily distracted from doing work at home? Total People courses are taught in small, friendly classrooms where you can get support from the tutor and make friends with like-minded students and you get to go on work experience.
Consider your travel limitations – are you able to travel for the course of your choice or are your travel options limited? We can help you work out the best routes and provide courses out of the city centre which might be easier to get to for you. Our Study Programmes are available in Crewe, Macclesfield and Northwich, which are all easy to get to and close to local train stations.
Here’s the big one. If you don’t know what career you want to do, then a broader option might be for you. A BTEC Level 1 in Vocational Studies gives you a grounding to work in business, retail, social care, customer services and public services for example. This could lead onto a career as a shop assistant, a care home worker, a customer services assistant or an office administrator.
All our Study Programmes offer a mixture of work experience, tutorials, digital skills, maths and English. This provides a good grounding for many careers by giving you essential hands-on experience and a broad understanding of business to get you started.
If you’re interested in business digital skills, then the Level 2 Diploma in Skills for Business is for you. With a mix of classroom learning, work experience, tutorials, digital skills and maths and English, it can open doors in social care, business, public services and hospitality.
Finally, pick up the phone or email us – we can help you make the next step. With courses starting this October, it’s never too late.
