Through this provision learners can:
1. Recognise, develop

activities.
Learners have one
discussion about the skills
they have developed.
· understand and demonstrate the main qualities,
attitudes and skills needed to enter and thrive in
the working world;
· evaluate the usefulness of a range of skills
for gaining and sustaining employment and
self-employment;
· manage their continuing career development,
including transitions;
· take risks and learn from mistakes;
· apply their functional skills and personal, learning
and thinking skills.
2. Relate their own
abilities, attributes
and achievements
to career intentions,
and make informed
choices based on an
understanding of
available options.
Learners undertake

their skills for career
management, including
a guidance interview
focusing on career
progression.

of `career';
