The realities of contemporary life places complex demands on graduates looking for work – so enabling students to become self-confident, skilled and career-ready learners must be an integral part of their education.
The International Baccalaureate (IB) Career-related Programme (CP) prepares students for both life long learning and the world of work, as well as developing a student’s personal aptitudes.
By doing so the programme offers a personally designed pathway towards further/higher education, apprenticeships or work.
Developing students for success in employment
Students in the CP develop skills that are genuinely valued by employers across the globe. The programme’s curriculum framework develops:
- critical thinking skills
- maturity and responsibility
- time management skills
- a strong work ethic
- collaborative and reflective mindsets
- social and communication skills.
These capabilities are complementary to the accredited skills students gain as a requirement of their career-related studies.
