Bolton College Careers Programme Calendar 2022 – 2023
Part of the University of Bolton Group
At Bolton College, Careers Education, Information, Advice & Guidance (CEIAG) is managed by the Assistant Principal for Curriculum and Stakeholder Engagement and is supported by the Student Experience Manager, Senior Management Team (SMT), Careers Advisors, Governors and a steering group consisting of students and curriculum staff. Linked to the 2017 Gatsby Careers Guidance Benchmarks (GCGB), the CEIAG programme meets the relevant Careers Development Institute (CDI) framework. Throughout their time at Bolton College, our students’ needs change, and our careers and employability programme reflects this. Up-to-date, accurate careers guidance is essential. When we provide this, we ensure that it is presented impartially; allows learners to make informed decisions about a range of career options and encourages learners to fulfil their potential.
