Careers Information Handbook 2008

The 2008 Careers Information Handbook provides careers professionals with the practical support and information they need on a day-to-day basis, regardless of their position, level of experience or place of work in the UK. Compiled by a team of leading careers specialists, the directory is an excellent starting point for the newly appointed adviser as it provides guidance on how to set up a careers information centre.

For the more experienced practitioner it is invaluable for its resource recommendations (covering all formats including both free and priced publications) and for keeping up to date with changes in the sector. In addition to information on general and occupational resources this guide provides useful information on resources for special needs, adult guidance, gap year and voluntary work, and study and employment overseas. It can also be dipped into for the latest contact details of useful organisations and explanations of common abbreviations.
