"Career changers could be game changers for teacher recruitment," says Nicola Davenport in Schools Week, describing her own research into teacher training and her excellent decision to become a teacher. And she's right. The number of people aged of 50+ applying to teacher training is up 34% compared to last year. That's why we're here - to help career changers apply for training and then provide two years of support, so they can start training with confidence and then thrive as teachers. https://lnkd.in/egBJqcKT

July is an important time for reflection, planning, and organization. In just a few weeks, streets will fill with school buses transporting K-12'ers back to school, sports and extracurricular activities kick off, and everyone will ramp up for the busyness of another school year. It's an exciting and energizing time but once that ball gets rolling, it's hard to carve out time for career planning. Use the next 2-3 weeks to: * Determine your target career goal (promotion, pivot, or professional development) * Get clear on industry norms and timelines for that promotion or pivot * Schedule time with a career advisor: let us be your sounding board * Finalize your resume and cover letter edits, then update your LinkedIn profile to showcase recent accomplishments and/or knowledge * Map out the career engagement activities you want to participate in (conferences, happy hours, info sessions, etc.) It's almost game time; don't put off preparation!

⚠ We're like a family here < We are a strong and supportive community that learn from each other and work towards the same goals ⚠ My son and my husband are my family - I don't need a second one. But I'm always up to network, build a friendly relationship and join diverse community with a strong supportive system. EVPs should reflect a true value you provide as a company to its employees and candidates. Would you fire your brother, cut some money from your mom, ask your little baby to learn how to play piano at 2 years of age? Exactly! Dear #candidates please look out for the "family" pitch during the interviews. Seek for honesty, transparency and a clear w-l balance. Building a strong community among employees that support each other, share similar work values and ambitions, working towards the same goals will do a lot better than taco Tuesday and Secret Santa parties. Do you call your team a family? #candidateexperience #evp #recruitment #talentattraction
