Modern Career Guidance for Young People Book 6 (Ages 17-18) - Career Matching, Applications and Transition Readiness - POTMAC International

Year 13/Senior 6 Career Mentoring Student Handbook – “Life & Career Readiness”

The Final Step from Student to Confident Young Adult.

What if your child could leave school already knowing what they want, how to plan it, and how to stand out in a crowded world?

So many students finish school feeling lost — full of knowledge but unsure of direction.
The Year 13 Career Mentoring Handbook bridges that gap, guiding your teen to make clear choices about their studies, career, and life path.

Endorsed by Potmac International, authors of the World Achievers Challenge, this book helps your child walk out of school not just with grades, but with grit, vision, and confidence.

✅ Communication & Confidence – Interview, CV, and personal statement templates that build poise.
✅ Transition Readiness – Guidance on independence, organisation, and professional behaviour.
