Adult Directions Software

For any students who missed the Careers Activity on ILP afternoons last week, fear not, you can still access the software by following the instructions at the end of this post.

Why should I do it?  I already know what I'm doing. There's no point - I did it in school before Long Road and it didn't help, etc., etc.

If any of the statements above sound familiar then keep in mind the following:
  • Many students change their minds about careers each year, before the end of their course, and often it is too late to sort out new alternatives
  • Many students think that they will decide on what to do after their results are released.  BUT MANY OF THE OPPORTUNITIES HAVE LONG GONE BY THIS STAGE!
  • Many students are so convinced of what they are doing that they fail to consider back-up plans.  Sadly, some find that their results or ideas change in some way and their original ideas are no longer feasible.
To help generate fresh ideas, or even back up plans, try using the Adult Directions Software as follows:
  • Access the frontpage of Moodle
  • Select the Long Road Wiki option from the Main Menu on the left hand side
  • Select the Careers Department Wiki on the next page
  • Select Careers Software from the Careers Menu on the left hand side
  • Select NEW to register and begin using Adult Directions software
If you have any problems with this programme, please feel free to come to the Careers Department and we will do all we can to help you.
