We are proud to present our brand new DVD and learning manual on CD called ‘Let’s Talk Guidance’ and hope that you enjoy watching the clips and will want to order your copy immediately. We are currently taking pre-publication orders and the product will be released after 1st July.
Just to give you a bit of background to this project:
Having been responsible for the delivery of guidance interview training for over 10 years we have often been asked by delegates ‘Can we see a video?’ or worse still ‘Why can’t the trainers role play a model interview in front of the group?’
We all know that there is no such thing as a perfect interview, although there is some excellent practice out there. The question is “How do we capture it on film?”

We have been working with Liane Hambly, an independent trainer and consultant for a number of years in the delivery of guidance training for both Connexions Nottinghamshire and the Consortium of East Midlands Connexions services, and we both agreed that the need for a DVD was long overdue and it was time to do something about it. Careers Scotland Highlands and Islands also thought there was a gap in the market and have provided sponsorship for this production.
As a result Liane wrote 7 scripts based on real life cases and we used practising advisers and young actors to play the roles.
There is also an excellent manual on CD which either trainers can use to support course delivery or learners can work through at their own pace.
What you will see is real guidance workers using their own skills to demonstrate the art of guidance.
View some clips from our DVD (requires Flash player):
Clip 1 | Clip 2 | Clip 3 | Clip 4 | Clip 5 | Clip 6 | Clip 7
1: 17 year old Jasmin intends to study law and become a lawyer. She becomes slightly defensive when asked about her ideas and so the interview demonstrates how an adviser can explore and gently challenge a client to think more widely.
2: an interview with an adult who is thinking of returning to work. This interview demonstrates exploring and working with the client's preferred decision making style, in this case, using the imagination.
3: Luke is an 18 year old who wants to go to university but keep an open mind as to the long term. This clip demonstrates encouraging the client to take a pro-active stance. The rest of the interview explores how an adviser may use the Planned Happenstance approach with clients (engaging in curious exploration whilst keeping an open mind).
4: Liz and her mother disagree about what Liz's next steps should be. The rest of the interview demonstrates how the adviser responds to this situation.
5: Matt is in year 10 and has been sent to the interview by his tutor. The interview demonstrates how an adviser can explain the benefits of guidance to a client who sees no point in being there and engage him in planning for his future.
6: This interview is of Hussain, an unemployed 17 year old who has called into the office to ask about benefits and appears disinterested in the options avaialable. The interview demonstrates how to challege a client's perceptions of guidance.
7. Review of Hussain three months later.
