What is #CECAheadOfTheGame?

#CECAheadOfTheGame has links for career leaders with a range of effective tools and resources to support you, your students and parents/carers through transitions to ensure you remain Ahead of the Game during this crucial period.

The Local Opportunities Finder

With Create Your Future, your students and learners can explore early career opportunities and events in their area.

Create Your Future Opportunities cover experience, training, early career roles, and careers events and workshops, too. Training can include free skills bootcamps, or paid earn-and-learn opportunities such as traineeships, apprenticeships, and degree apprenticeships.

Last year we supported young people with over 20,000 opportunities. As of 2022 these opportunities are updated daily, provided by organisations who have signed our Good Youth Employment Charter. The best way for students to explore Create Your Future opportunities is to be registered to the website, so that their experiences is personalised with local opportunities.
