Research CICA Face-to-face On Track Lost Talent Raise parents’ awareness of education and training opportunities. It raises the value attributed to those opportunities by parents. Parents are the preferred source of career information, advice and guidance for teenagers. Better careers advice would have encouraged early school leavers to stay at school. It is important for young people to have a specific occupational career plan and receive comprehensive career development services.

Your Future: How many of you… … knew at 16 years of age what you wanted to pursue? … are doing now what you thought you wanted to do when you were 16? … made important career decisions based on researching and reading labour market information? … are where you are now, at least in part, because of a chance encounter or unplanned event?

Attributes that young people need… Persistence Resilience Enterprise Drive 9 I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over again in my life. And this is why I succeed. Michael Jordan The best way to predict the future is to create it. Abraham Lincoln Desire! That’s the secret of every man’s career. Not education. Not being born with talents. Desire. Bobby Unser
