What are Career trails?

Career trails are 45-minute guided career experiences that target core career development needs. The trails are designed by career experts to drive behaviour change that moves people forward and enables skill development and career growth.

The coaching style encourages a mindset shift and sustained change through an energising mix of video, audio, real career stories, reflective activities and interactive workbooks.
