Use The Opportunity Finder Create Your Future Activities – Week 6

Here are some more opportunities you can explore…

As well as using the Opportunity Finder, you can make a big step forward by doing at least one of the following…

Choose an activity that matches your goals, interests and age. If you’re not the right age to apply for a work or training opportunity, maybe a work placement or skills-boosting course is more your thing. Just go with whatever is right for you.

The links will take you to zones where you can get started on your chosen activity and also find more information on how to explore more choices and options, whether it’s learning something new or applying for an opportunity.

There is no pressure to complete one of these actions just through the links above. There are a million ways to achieve your goal, whether it’s finding a free online course or volunteering online or locally near you. The links will just help you get started if you want extra support or ideas!

After completing the Create Your Future programme you should be in a better place to know who you are, what you want, and ways to get it. You are ready to take that next step to get ahead of the game. So why not celebrate by taking an action you KNOW can change your life for the better?

There are so many ways to build your skills, boost your knowledge, explore your interests and gain experience. Every journey starts with a single step. Take that step today, and get ready for exciting possibilities!
