This is a link to an old DfEE site LMI Matters! It is a set of resources for advisers and teachers to help them give advice and guidance on the labour market.

Practical tools

This section contains the toolkit's tools. There are ideas for using LMI in work with individuals and groups and in different contexts, and for different ways of presenting LMI. Each tool is free-standing, and some consist of more than one page. In no particular order the sections cover:

  • The tools and how to use them
  • Checkpoints: identifying clients' needs
  • Checkpoints: judging the quality of LMI
  • Using local LMI in class
  • LMI database: working with maths students
  • A quick guide: making sense of LMI
  • Guidelines: reading tables and charts
  • Using local LMI: classroom careers education session
  • Producing a regular LMI newsletter
  • Careers adviser's LMI workshop for school staff
  • Sample material: careers education in cross-curricular work
  • Two sample LMI leaflets

I wonder if anyone out there has tried using any of these materials?  Also, given the current resurgence of interest in LMI, could these materials come into use again.   It seems to me there is a lot of LMI already out there, and it does inform my practice up to a point, but I could probably engage with the area much more effectively, perhaps the approach reflected in the materials on this website could be part of that process.
