Kilgarth’s Programme of Study
When developing Kilgarth’s programmes of study, careers teams have mapped against the CDI’s Career Development Framework and its six learning outcomes; how does it help clients grow throughout life, explore possibilities, manage their career, create opportunities, balance life and work and see the big picture. Each activity may develop different skills, but programmes ensure engagement with all of these learning areas. This is shown in the colour matching of the lessons.
