  Are you a careers advisor for 14-18 year olds or a school librarian with a careers library?
  Do you need to give pupils advice and guidance on choosing and planning their future career and qualifications?

  Now more than ever students need to start thinking about their future aspirations so they have the best chance of getting the job they want. There are now nearly 1 million young people in England who aren't in employment or training, and school leavers are facing the toughest job market in 20 years. This directory will help them start planning their career.

  Careers 2011 is a bestselling one-stop careers directory that combines at-a-glance design with the best job information. Profiling over 550 different jobs, it inspires students to take a proactive approach to their careers research, supplying a huge range of vital information such as the qualifications required and any specialist training and skills needed to do the job. Also included in every profile is a guide to salary expectations, future career prospects, and an overview of the industry. Students get a realistic view of the advantages and disadvantages of the job so that they can make an informed decision about whether it is the right career for them. Finally, each job profile includes contact addresses for organisations and associations related to the job or sector that students can contact if they want to know more.

  Careers 2011 is available both as a paperback directory and CD-ROM so you can use it in the classroom as a photocopiable resource or let students browse the book at their leisure. Help inspire students to pick a career so they can start planning for it right now.
