Changing Career

There are many professions out there and many routes into these different professional careers. Have a look at the Sector Summaries to get an idea of what you might want to be and to gather information directly from the professional bodies on the numerous careers available and how to qualify. Our Career Videos may also help you choose. The professional bodies also provide information on recognition for existing qualifications. 

Some professionals end up with a career in a particular area where they may have no formal qualifications beyond a general degree. The Sector Summaries also give pointers to how you can obtain recognised qualifications in your profession. Want a change - the professional bodies also provide useful information on what qualification you require and which of your existing qualifications might count towards qualifying for a different profession.

We also provide general advice on how to plan your career change and point to useful websites in Resources. You may also find the Professional Qualifications Funding page in our University Advisors section helpful in identifying funds.
