I trained as a Careers Adviser in 2007-8 after a long career working in the charity sector in a range of roles including managing a Volunteer Centre, working with community groups, managing volunteers and recruiting learners to courses run in the community. Some of my more unusual jobs have involved working in a Youth Hostel in the Yorkshire Dales, working on a sheep farm for two years in Australia and being a Tour Guide in a monastery. Being a Careers Adviser has been a great way of combining my two main passions – helping people achieve their goals and researching and disseminating information. An optimist by nature, I believe that everyone has skills, talents and abilities. Sometimes individuals need help uncovering these and with communicating them clearly to employers or with working out their next step on their career journey. I have certainly benefitted myself over the years from the support of various career professionals. Between 2013 – 2017 I was employed as a Careers Adviser delivering a national contract for adults seeking careers advice. Whilst I loved the work I became increasingly frustrated by the limitations of the contract which prevented many clients getting what they really needed support with. I realised the only way to be able to provide an excellent client-centred service was by providing it myself! And so I launched my own business. For your peace of mind I have Professional Indemnity Insurance and am a member of the national Career Development Institute (CDI). As a Registered Professional on the CDI register I am required to carry out 25 hours per year of Continuous Professional Development. I’m really interested in being the Best Career Consultant I can be so I regularly attend training and information events in order to develop my skills and knowledge.

Rotherham

As a leading training provider, we aim to provide business knowledge & services to transform people and industry.  Whyy choose us?  "I have just recently finished my CMI Level 5 apprenticeship in Management & Leadership. Despite the challenges of COVID in the last 18 months Whyy Change quickly adapted to online learning and they were always there for me. I couldn't recommend them anymore, fantastic experience. Abi Holloway Supply Chain Manager, Sonoco Consumer Products Ltd I decided to do an apprenticeship to develop my skills in my role and was thrilled to come away with a distinction Level 4 Improvement Practitioner. Whilst Lean doesn’t always fit in my work environment I have come away with many tools and techniques that I can use to make my work more effective. The team at Whyy Change were friendly and informative and fully supported us through Covid-19 lockdowns, supporting us with regular Zoom calls when we were unable to visit the office. Amanda Hammer Digital Designer, Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council Having worked with Whyy? Change for a number of years, I have had nothing but excellent feedback from every apprentice or team member who has engaged in training with them. The whole Whyy? Change team go that extra mile to ensure that learners find the best way to learn for them and encourage and inspire success. Julia Bloomer DL Head of Learning & Development and HR, AESSEAL PLC I’ve recently completed my Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) Level 4 Digital Marketing Qualification through an apprenticeship. Emma was extremely helpful throughout the onboarding process and explained everything. My tutor was Laura, who answered any question I had and explained the content in multiple ways if I didn’t understand a certain topic. I can’t recommend Whyy? Change enough it was a great environment to learn within. Such a supportive, caring and encouraging environment. Millie Wilkinson Communications Assistant, Henry Boot PLC I would highly recommend doing an apprenticeship or any other course with Whyy? Change. The help and support I received from all the staff was like no other and I always received 100% from all of them. I’ll be very very impressed and shocked if anyone else can top the level of kindness, helpfulness, passion and respect shown by Whyy? Change. Whether you're straight out of school or looking for a career change after 20 years, Whyy? is the one to choose.
