THE LIFE STARTER · PLAN A CAREER ACTIVITY TOGETHER
For a host, learners, and an employer or community partner the host already knows.
Complete this brief together before inviting a group. Start with one existing course project.

THE PURPOSE
Role or area of work learners want to explore:
A small task people in that role actually do:
Why learners say this task matters to them:
Existing LifeStarter course and project:
The work learners will make:

PLAN TOGETHER
What learners helped choose or change:
What the partner contributed to the task, example, or review criteria:
What the partner will actually do during delivery (for example: explain a task,
demonstrate a safe process, answer prepared questions, or review an agreed work sample):
Named host responsible for arranging that contribution:
Date or confirmation still needed:

MAKE IT POSSIBLE
Practice time, discussion time, and any extra fieldwork time:
Sample materials and equipment the host will supply:
Offline or low-bandwidth option:
Reading, language, accessibility, or scheduling adjustments agreed with learners:
Host arrangements for permissions, supervision, safe contact, and support:
Alternative activity if a partner is unavailable:

CHECK THE WORK
Choose two or three criteria from the existing project checklist:
1.
2.
3.
Who will give feedback, and when:
How learners can revise or explain their work after feedback:
One short task to try before practice and a comparable task after practice:
What stays the same (instructions, criteria, permitted help):
How the host will record different attempts or help received:

FOLLOW THROUGH
Learner-chosen next action:
Person the learner can ask for support:
Follow-up date:
One question for learner feedback: What should we keep or change next time?

AFTER DELIVERY
What actually happened, including partner participation and activity time:
Number invited / number who took part / number with reviewed work:
What is missing or still unknown:
One change for the next session, its owner, and a date to review it:

The host arranges partner contact and any real workplace activity. A practice project can
be completed with sample materials; completion does not depend on a job offer, sale, or placement.
Keep participant details in the host's approved system. Share only work the learner chooses
to share. This blank brief does not collect or upload information.
