What CURSOR does…

In partner countries the current career support model is based on the concept of career guidance as a service. The provision of career guidance is generally confined to formal education or job seeking services. However, given the dynamic nature of the modern economy it is impractical to provide the current level of service on an ongoing basis throughout the active working life of an individual. The CURSOR project proposes to address the issue of career planning as a subject to be taught rather than as a service to be provided and will focus on building the career planning skills of young people to ensure that they are self-sufficient where career planning is concerned and able to plot and manage their own career progression pathway and update it as required throughout their working life.
