ABSTRACT
This chapter describes the first phase of a curriculum project set up in 1994 by Kent Careers and Guidance Service (KCGS) in collaboration with 11 secondary schools. The aim of the project was to adapt and pilot an ‘experiential’ careers education and guidance programme originally developed in Quebec, where it still forms part of the statutory curriculum, and which was subsequently adapted in France by the Association Trouver/Creer. The project was launched under the direction of Andrew Edwards (then Development Manager with KCGS). Jean-Luc Mure, Vice President of the Association Trouver/Créer, provided consultancy and support with training. Greg Robb, as Head of Careers in one of the schools involved in the pilot project, provides a case study at the end of the chapter.
