How to use Labour Market Information (LMI) to help with making careers decisions
Good quality Labour Market Information (LMI) can help a young person make career decisions and plan their future. In a rapidly changing local, UK and global jobs market young people can no longer solely rely upon the experiences and advice of their family and friends.
What is Labour Market Information?
