| Annotation | From January 2013 to March 2015, the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) funded the National Institute for Adult Continuing Education (NIACE) to undertake a pilot project on Mid Life Career Review (MLCR). The aim was to explore the demand for a career review among employed and unemployed adults aged 45-65, and to investigate the costs and benefits of such a service. The project worked with 17 partner agencies, who tested a variety of models, and provided reviews to 2883 clients, across the whole of England. Partners included all the Government's National Careers Service Prime Contractors, voluntary organisations, learning providers, Unionlearn, Workplace Learning Advocates (WLA) and Community Learning Champions (CLC). This report outlines the case for a Mid Life Career Review (MLCR), its objectives, the contextual rationale, overall methodology, evaluation and post evaluation of the impact for individuals, career providers/advisors, and employers. It concludes by identifying a number of next steps based on the costs and sustainability of the MLCR. Another publication, 'Mid life careers review: technical report: background evidence and methodology' provides further evidence, data sources and research. (RH). |
