Career Advisors

• Career Advisors

On Total Professions you will find guidance and advice for school leavers and graduates considering a career in the professions, as well as professionals considering a career change. It provides a resource which brings together all the information professional bodies provide on professional careers. Check out the Sector Summaries for information on jobs and salaries, routes and qualifications and funding.

From accountancy to construction, from engineering to marketing - the career choices available are vast and there are a variety of different ways to enter into them. All the leading professional membership bodies in every sector can be found on Total Professions, offering contacts and information for careers advisors. We provide information for career advisors working with school, college and university students as well as those advising career changers.

You can also find links to a variety of organisations and other sources providing help and support to inspire people to become a professional – see the Resources page and the Fair Access sections. If you require further information, you can find a list of the relevant people to contact at some  professional bodies, found under Working with Associations.  The site offers information on graduate placements as well as a section on non-academic and vocational routes into the professions. It provides some advice on funding and points to other useful sources of information.

Whether you are offering careers advice to school pupils or helping graduates choose a career, this unique portal, provided by the professional bodies themselves, helps you do your job more effectively. You may also find the information provided in University Students and At School/college pages of interest too.
