CLC Connect Updates
2023
March Update
The CLC Connect community is approaching 1,500 members. Please do register if you have not done so as new information and materials, include a podcast with our principal, Eve Jardine-Young, are being added all the time.
Can you help with this question in the Further Education section of the Advice Hub? "I'm an SFC2 student hoping to pursue a career in Law, I've applied to study Law LLB at university, however, a lot of people who have done this degree have suggested doing a conversion instead if you have another subject of interest. I've applied deferred for Law for a course that I feel I'd enjoy, but if anyone has studied/ is studying Law or done a conversion I'd really value your opinion". Please log on and add your thoughts or post your own questions.
New this month too are details on the application process for the inaugural Council Advisory Board in the Opportunities area.
Would you like to help fellow Guild members and current pupils secure work experience? Is this something you are able to offer or have colleagues that can help? We will soon be posting work experience opportunities on CLC Connect, please contact Mrs Heather Eggelton at eggeltonh@cheltladiescollege.org for more information.
February Update
We are now approaching 1,400 community members, CLC Connect is establishing itself as the place to go to connect with others, review useful digital resources and seek and give help and advice.
This month we have launched the Advice Hub alongside our Pupil and Guild mentoring programmes. This area is for when you have a question you want to pose to the community and covers topics such as Industry Insights, Pupil Work Experience and Internships, Career Queries, CVs, Interviews and Job Seeking, Further Education and Returning to work.
Whether you are seeking advice or would like to help others benefit from your knowledge and experience please do review the questions on the Advice Hub and consider signing up to be a mentor.
Please visit clc.aluminate.net to register if you have not already done so and encourage your friends to do the same.
January Update
In January, many of us take a little time to review our priorities and goals and also seek out new opportunities. Membership of CLC Connect can help you with this, if you haven't yet registered please click here.
Member Group
Want to connect with like-minded people on a personal or professional level or reconnect with old friends?
CLC Connect groups include education, area and class of groups for Guild members and professional and personal interest groups for everyone. Joining a group is simple with one click. If there is a new group you would like to be created, please let us know.
Opportunities

Digital Resources
We have added some New Year recipes to the creative resources section of the Digital Library. Some are in recognition of Chinese New Year (year of the Rabbit), others are Vegetarian and Vegan.
