Reflecting on the past to share with the future
23rd January 2023
Last week, Cathy Joshi, Technical Director, and Jude Wilson-Brown, Regional Marketing Manager for the Middle East, had the privilege to speak at Dubai College’s Year 11 Career evening to GCSE students regarding navigating their future career paths.
Founded in 1978, Dubai College is a coeducational secondary school educating students from Years 7 to 13, providing British academia to both local and expatriate families in Dubai.
Cathy and Jude provided insight into how they started their own career paths and gave advice to students on how to navigate their course choices as they begin to plan their own career around their passions and interests. Jude gave personal advice to the students, to ensure they undertake a career that they will continue to enjoy as they progress through their career journey ahead.
“I’m passionate about giving advice to all students, something which was lacking when I started my school career choices, on the many opportunities and jobs there are actually out there, especially for young girls. It’s necessary you find out what’s possible in the first few years of your career, so you have a can-do attitude wherever you end up working. Make as many connections as you can and if there’s no seat at the table, bring one! Never let someone say you can’t do something, always strive to prove them wrong.”
Jude Wilson-Brown, Regional Marketing Manager
