Connexions: Providing Information, Advice and Support at College

Connexions Personal Advisers are available to provide all students under 20 years of age (up to age 25 for some students with learning difficulties & disabilities) with up to date information, advice & support. They are here to help you make decisions about your future and help you deal with things that are going on in your life.

This help could include help with:

Choosing the right career path for you
Making choices for after your course finishes (e.g. apprenticeships/training, further education courses, university, gap year, jobs)
Job hunting (where to find job vacancies, writing CV’s, interview skills)
Money (including money for studying and benefits)
Housing
Relationships
Health
Volunteering
Leisure activities

Connexions Personal Advisers can talk through your options and help you make decisions without deciding for you. They provide confidential and practical support in 1 to 1 meetings/appointments and through group sessions on your course.

Connexions Personal Advisers also work with staff in the college (such as: tutors, College Nurse, Student Welfare Officer, Student Finance Officer, Counsellors) and organisations outside college (e.g. Youth Advice Centres, local Connexions Centres, Local Authority Housing Departments) to get you the help that you may need.
