The BIC Careers and Higher Education Fair offered students an exceptional opportunity to chat one-to-one with a wide variety of professionals, local and international companies, and international universities about their careers’ ambitions.
All our professionals and collaborators were volunteers - our current and former parents, our highly qualified staff members, our alumni, international universities, and well-established professional companies closely associated with the school. Our students had the chance to speak one-to-one with these inspirational and successful people. Students, in their evaluations, said such things as:
‘I enjoyed talking to someone about my dream job’
‘I liked finding out about a job that I didn’t know existed’
‘I was inspired by the pilot who said ¨If it sounds fun, then do it¨.’
One Year 6 student was heard to say that he now wanted to be an embryologist when he is older.
Nacho Diaz, who graduated from BIC with top A-Level results last summer, returned to speak to our students about how he has been accepted at TU Delft University of Technology and his experience as an engineering student in Holland.
Nacho said: “I have been exploring different career paths, getting the chance to speak to different professionals and I am delighted to have chosen Aeronautical Engineering for my future”, reiterating the message of the fair of how important it is to our students to talk to as many people as possible to find their career path - Exploring was the key message.
