23 THURSDAY ENTERPRISE HELP STUDENTS FIND THEIR DREAM JOB The IMI (Institute of the Motor Industry), is the Professional Body for the retail motor industry and, through our careers portal Autocity, has created a ‘Find My Dream Job’ quiz ideal for students who are unsure what roles may suit their personalities and preferences. The 10 question quiz will suggest 4 or 5 roles they may be suited for and links to videos of people doing the job, information about the work, salary expectations, entry routes and apprenticeship vacancies. As well as this students can explore the World of Work and discover over 150 job roles (technical and non-technical) that make up the retail motor industry. www.autocity.org.uk/world-of-work There are comprehensive, free teaching resources ranging from term-long projects covering key stage 3 / 4 curriculum in maths, literacy and business through to single lesson plans, employability skills exercises, work experience tool kits and fun end-of-term ideas. All available to download and print/copy as many times as you need. www.autocity.org.uk/hubcap The IMI also organise free outings for school and college groups to motor industry related places such as the Santa Pod Raceway, where students can find out more about the industry, meet the teams and have exclusive tours of the pits – and have a great day out! www.autocity.org.uk/events Could your school have our next national champions? Our three competitions are now open for entries with a closing date of 29th May 2015. Students can enter the Business, Literacy or Body & Paint competitions sponsored by Jaguar Land Rover, Volkswagen Group and Babcock Training respectively – and there are some money-can’t-buy prizes up for grabs! Students work in teams to plan a product launch for Jaguar Land Rover, write a magazine article for Volkswagen or design a custom paint scheme for Babcock.
