Schools/colleges - how to subscribe if you don't have free access
What is Careerpilot?
Careerpilot is an award-winning, one-stop careers website for students, parents and teachers. Careerpilot can be used by students from Year 7–13 in schools and colleges. The site helps students develop career skills so they can manage their career decisions as they go through life. We do this through showing students the three-stages they can always follow whenever they make a careers decision.
- Start with you
- Explore your options
- Plan your next step
The site includes tools and activities students can use at every stage of this process, as well as information and advice on all progression pathways and on 900+ job profiles, which include national and regional Labour Market Information.
It is FREE for a student to register on Careerpilot and they can access their account until they are 20.
Students can log in to use their Career Tools to personalise their choices, save quiz results and build their report - which moves up annually and can be 'ported' to another provider. If your school is in the funded area or is a subscriber, students will be able to add themselves to your school or college at registration (your provider's name will be added to the drop-down list) and all the data they generate as they build their Career Tools report will be available for you to view in the Reporting Zone. Subscribers also have access to all the amazing resources in the Adviser Zone e.g. five career lessons for every year group, Hot Job posters and activities.
Parents have free access to the Careerpilot Parent Zone - which has answers to questions parents are frequently asking.
Many schools in the South are eligible for FREE access to Careerpilot and the Pathway Planner
If you are a state secondary school in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Bath and North East Somerset, Bristol, North Somerset, South Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Swindon or Berkshire then access to all 4 zones of Careerpilot and the Pathway Planner will be free. The reason the site is free-to-use in this region is because a number of universities, Uni Connect projects and Careers Hubs pay subscriptions to fund this.
