I'm going to uni and my parents and I are a bit
worried about what's going to happen. Can you help us?
The move from School to University is always difficult, which is
compounded by the fact that you are moving from a regional area to the
city in order to study. EDN | Midwest offers a workshop
that deals with the process of moving from school to work as well as
what the children and their parents should expect.

Help me?
If you have absolutely no idea what to do, we have a Career Builder

always good to give yourself a few options while also having specific
choices that you can make.
