When providing careers information, it’s essential to tailor the guidance to the specific age groups.

 

For 11-12 year olds, it’s all about discovering what they enjoy and learning about different jobs in a fun way. Think career days, cool guest speakers, and simple projects that show what various professions are like.

 

13-15 year olds, the focus shifts to helping them figure out what they’re good at and what interests them. This can include career assessments, job shadowing, and chatting about the skills and education needed for different careers.

 

Finally, for 16-18 year olds, it’s time to get serious and practical. They need information on higher education options, vocational training, internships, and how to apply for jobs. This stage is all about making informed decisions for their future careers.
