Career education & guidance in schools Premanand Rai
Predictions about participation in the 21st-century workforce are being proven accurate every day. It does demand lifelong learning and an enduring capacity to manage change. Globalization has created even more challenges as well as opportunities for everyone. Young people are entering a more complex and dynamic environment where the interface between work and other facets of life is constantly being reappraised.
As the world changed and opportunities grew, the matching process became more complex. More young people had to decide whether to continue their education or get a job. They had to think about the longer-term consequences of their decisions as well as their next steps. So, careers work changed and young people began to receive some careers education in preparation for their ‘end of school’ guidance interview. This was normally a handful of lessons giving information about the opportunities on offer and advice on how to complete application forms and construct CVs.
Earlier the World of Career was quiet different - In the early days, careers work focused on matching individuals to specific opportunities in education and work. As choice was limited, many young people simply followed in their family’s footsteps. Making decisions about the next steps was a straightforward process, taking little time and requiring little preparation. For most students, an ‘end of school’ careers guidance interview with the Youth Employment Service was generally sufficient.
:: Technology, globalization and other developments have continued to transform the world, and change has become a feature of daily life. In schools, curriculum change meant that young people had some choice about which subjects to study in Years 10 and 11. To help them make these ‘career choices’, most schools extended their careers education lessons into Year 9 and gave young people earlier access to careers guidance.
:: International interest in career education and guidance is increasing as governments acknowledge the personal, social and economic benefits of equipping school students with the attitudes, knowledge and transferable skills they will need to become self-reliant career management and lead positive and fulfilled lives.

WA Guidelines for Career Development and Transitions Dr Peter Carey
The Western Australian Guidelines for Career Development and Transition Support Services is a response to the National Framework for Career and Transition Services. This approach has been developed between the Department of Education and Training of Western Australia, the Catholic Education Office of Western Australia and the Association of Independent Schools of Western Australia and outlines a comprehensive approach by schools to assist students in managing the various stages of transition.
To make effective transitions through school and on to further education, training and employment, students require access to information and suitably qualified people that will assist them in this process. Before making and implementing decisions about careers, students also need to develop a knowledge and under standing of themselves in relation to the workforce and need to be aware of current labour market trends. This includes consolidating the skills required to learn further, as well as recognising and developing employability skills through the course of their everyday learning at school, in employment and training pathways, at home and in the community.
The objective of this Resource Collection is to provide students with access to career development services and information that will assist them to make informed choices about learning, work and life opportunities. The Guidelines present a range of options which could be implemented to support young people in making effective transitions and can be used as a tool to assist schools in planning for and providing services and information to support this process.

A business plan is a document that outlines the goals, strategies, and financial projections of a new or existing business. It typically includes sections such as an executive summary, company description, market analysis, organization and management structure, product or service offerings, marketing and sales strategies, and financial forecasts. The purpose of a business plan is to provide a roadmap for the business and to attract investors or secure funding.

The Year in Review report offers a glance at the work of the departments and areas that comprise Student Affairs. There is much beyond what's contained here, however. We continue to look for ways to collaborate among departments and with our colleagues across the university in efforts to creating an inclusive campus environment and a signature undergraduate experience.

ENHANCING POSTGRADUATE TEACHING AND RESEARCH: Old Standards, New Challengesmusob2
As some Faculty members insulate themselves from new ideas that are driving the intellectual world to which they are connected, I have strong concerns about the future of Nigerian Universities. This is because universities are now faced with a much more complex operating environment and many competing needs, which compels a reassessment of mode of operation

As Europe's leading economic powerhouse and the fourth-largest hashtag#economy globally, Germany stands at the forefront of innovation and industrial might. Renowned for its precision engineering and high-tech sectors, Germany's economic structure is heavily supported by a robust service industry, accounting for approximately 68% of its GDP. This economic clout and strategic geopolitical stance position Germany as a focal point in the global cyber threat landscape.
In the face of escalating global tensions, particularly those emanating from geopolitical disputes with nations like hashtag#Russia and hashtag#China, hashtag#Germany has witnessed a significant uptick in targeted cyber operations. Our analysis indicates a marked increase in hashtag#cyberattack sophistication aimed at critical infrastructure and key industrial sectors. These attacks range from ransomware campaigns to hashtag#AdvancedPersistentThreats (hashtag#APTs), threatening national security and business integrity.
🔑 Key findings include:
🔍 Increased frequency and complexity of cyber threats.
🔍 Escalation of state-sponsored and criminally motivated cyber operations.
🔍 Active dark web exchanges of malicious tools and tactics.
Our comprehensive report delves into these challenges, using a blend of open-source and proprietary data collection techniques. By monitoring activity on critical networks and analyzing attack patterns, our team provides a detailed overview of the threats facing German entities.
This report aims to equip stakeholders across public and private sectors with the knowledge to enhance their defensive strategies, reduce exposure to cyber risks, and reinforce Germany's resilience against cyber threats.
