icould is a radical and timely new online resource,
created to help and inspire young people standing on the threshold of the world
of work.
At its heart it will be a talking library of thousands of personal stories, told
to camera, in their own words, by people of all ages in all sorts of occupations.
From firefighters to footballers, accountants to zookeepers, plumbers to museum
curators, journalists to Chief Executives. Through their stories, icould
will bring to life a multitude of career possibilities, to set young people thinking
positively and imaginatively about directions their lives could take.
icould will be launched in Spring 2009.
Whatever the size of your business or organisation, whatever activity
or industry you’re engaged in, we’d really value your participation. We want you
to be part of the icould story. icould is moving
fast. To be part of icould we’d like to get you involved as soon
as possible.
If you can remember how you felt when you first had to start thinking
seriously about your future, you’ll understand immediately what an important idea
icould is. And why we’re asking you to tell your career story,
in your own words, on camera, online, on icould.

Our film crews have already been filming in a number of key areas,
including the NHS, local government and the performing arts but we’re really keen
to film individuals from a range of occupations in all sectors by the launch of
icould in Spring 2009.
