Self-awareness - Recognise how you are changing, what you have to offer and what is important.
Self-determination - How you manage your well-being, process and achievements.
Self-improvement as a learner - Review and reflect, upon how you are through employability and enterprise.
Careers development equips individuals to take ownership in navigating their own career pathway.
