You can start thinking about higher education at any time. But, if you have an idea of a career you’re interested in when you’re young, you can choose options at school that will better prepare you for your future.
For lots of us, though, when we are young we have no idea what we want to do for a career – we’re not even aware of all the jobs that are out there.
If you fit into that category, try exploring our ‘Find your Career’ section and start identifying jobs that you like the sound of and see what skills and qualifications are needed. Having direction means knowing where you want to go and knowing how to get there.
