Careers Education, Information, Advice & Guidance

Do you need help planning what to do next?

Birmingham Adult Education Service holds the matrix Standard. This is the national quality standard for Information, Advice and Guidance (IAG).

This means that we offer you a welcoming and safe environment in which to discuss your learning needs. We will also ensure that the information given to you is impartial and confidential, and will refer you to another provider if necessary.

While you are studying with us, we believe that you will want to start to explore a wider range of opportunities as your expectations of what you can achieve grow. We are here to help you make the right decisions about course choices, how to access further education courses and advise you on how to get your dream job.

The Careers and Progression Team can provide advice on a range of subjects:

  • help link your personal interests, abilities and skills to your job or career
  • identify appropriate courses
  • give advice on ways to progress in a career
  • ways to search for and apply for jobs, e.g., interview skills, CV writing
  • complete application forms
  • identify the personal skills you may need and refer you to other support (if necessary)
  • give advice about financial support available
  • signpost you to other education providers
