I am delighted to provide you with our latest analysis and summary of the impact of Compass Careers’ services on students seen by our fantastic Careers Advisors. We seek anonymous feedback from students throughout the year to improve what we do, to guide students towards a better future. It is designed so that the client rates their clarity and confidence relating to their career plans to show if the Compass Careers Interview has had an impact. Here are the combined results and commentary collected from 10 of our schools between Sep 2023 and July 2024 using the Feedback questionnaire which our advisors are using during 1 to 1 Careers Guidance sessions, we collected over 1500 forms:
