The Changing Labour Market: key issues for guidance

Go There

It is uncontroversial to state that the labour market is changing, but what does this actually mean and what are the implications for guidance?

If research evidence supports the claim that one of the things that clients value most about Careers Guidance is access to professional knowledge and networks and that means helping individuals to make sense of an increasingly complex and unstable labour market, then the onus is on practitioners to be up to speed in a world of change.

This module identifies some recognised trends in labour market change and points out some implications of these changes for guidance practice.
