Which Path?
We know it’s a little bit hard to figure out what you want to do with the rest of your life. If you’re still in school, you have to make decisions about which classes you want to take to GCSE, A-Level and maybe even university.
And then what? Do you know what you want to do afterwards? What if you don’t want to go to university, what options do you have? Well fret not, we’ve started trying to put some of that information together for you right here.
In the Which Path sections you will find information about starting your career, continuing in education, finding and utilising a mentor and sourcing funding for training and further education. We know it’s probably not comprehensive, but we’re hoping it’s a start.
If you have anything to add to this information, or want to tell us what you think, drop us an email on info@opportunitiestosuccess.org.uk.
Careers
First things first, career is a very big word! We talk about being having successful career’s a lot on this site, but we also want to stress that essentially your career can involve going down many paths and exploring lots of options.
Higher Education
We have looked around to see what sources of information are available and useful to young people looking to make a decision on Higher Education. The fact is, figuring out what you want to study can be a hard decision and there are lots of things to consider.
Mentoring
There is a universal conception that many people accomplish higher levels of success in the professional arena if they have had the assistance of a mentor. At OTS, we believe in encouraging and facilitating mentoring within the youth community as much as possible.
Scholarships
If you are thinking of applying to go to University but are worried by the cost of a higher education then don’t worry! Financial assistance is available in all forms and types for a number of different situations.
