Careers

You’re working hard for your exams and you’re on track to pass. What next..?

At Croydon College, we put careers and employability at the heart of everything we do.

The Careers Team is here to provide you with impartial advice and guidance to support your aspirations, explore the opportunities that are available to you, and help you plan your next steps after you complete your course. Our aim is to help you assess your own skills, values and interests, and match these interests into a career plan.

The Careers service is delivered by qualified Careers Advisors who adhere to the professional standards set out in the Careers Development Institute (CDI) Code of Ethics.
