2027 theme 

Later life Working: Exploring and making sense of what it means to be working later in life

Together we will explore why this has increasingly relevance, and what it may mean to be working later in life (beyond 60 years old). Chaired by Kate Mansfield, the contributors Kath Houston, Gilly Freedman, Tristram Hooley and Cathy Brown will share insights from their own research. In doing so, this will help us to make sense of and explore the implications of later life workers for career professionals in our research, policy writing and client practice.

Why attend?

This webinar is a fantastic, free (to CDI & NICEC members) CPD opportunity to see how theory is informing and impacting practice and reflect on your use of careers theory in your work.  

Audience

Practitioners who are CDI members, NICEC members and Fellows who are actively involved or are interested in research. We recognise the importance of research in the career development sector and encourage all practitioners to contribute to building the evidence base and using research to inform their practice. 

Cost

The event is free for CDI members, NICEC members and NICEC Fellows.
