Welcome to Block 2. In the last block, we explored your life experiences, your successes, and constraints, which play a part in enabling you to plan a better future. In Block 2, you’ll be considering what is important to you and helping you to decide what you want from work. You’ll be revisiting the SWOT analysis you carried out in Block 1, exploring what options are available to you and where to get relevant information, advice and guidance.

You’ll be learning how to set realistic targets and goals that take into account your personal circumstances. You’ll also be looking at the importance of networking and the different types of networks that you can use to help you shape and achieve your career goals. Remember, it’s always useful to discuss your ideas or plans with a colleague, current employer, or your family. Hearing other people’s views can be an important part of your decision-making.
