From a young age many children express an interest in becoming a
vet. However, the classic representation of the profession no
longer fits with the realities of a modern veterinary career.
Children in the 8-12 age group are encouraged to think about career
options through dedicated syllabus programmes at Key Stages 2 and 3
and GCSE choices later on, but there is no veterinary career book
for this age group. To Vet School and Beyond is written in an
easy-to-read format, enabling the book to be a point of reference
right through from pre-GSCE to A level. Bold and interactive, with
plenty of illustrations and sub-sections, the book is a fresh and
modern perspective on the veterinary career. For children who are
curious about the veterinary world. This fun and approachable book
introduces, through profiles of real vets, the different sectors
beyond the familiar small animal/family vet practice in which
veterinarians can work, such as research, fish veterinary, zoo
medicine and charity work. It also provides some guidance in how to
study to get into veterinary school.
Thinking about going to college? What subjects to take? How to
organise your time properly? How to meet new people and maintain
friendships? This interactive workbook provides guidance for your
entire journey through college and further education. Full of handy
tips and strategies to help you through college, it guides you
through early hurdles such as preparing for a new sensory
environment, planning your transport and making friends. Chapters
also cover life in college, so you'll know how to properly manage
your time studying and socialising, how to get a grip on social
media and have the confidence to tackle exams head on! The book
includes 100 pages of interactive elements, which develop
decision-making, reflection and strategy-building skills, and you
can work through it all with an older adult for help. It works
alongside the companion guide for further education staff, Helping
Students on the Autism Spectrum Get the Best Out of College.

"I'm stuck, feel unfulfilled, I am not succeeding. I don't know where to start, I'm not sure what to fix and I really not sure what to do or which direction to take."
This dilemma can happen to us at any age – and this is when we need to find the tools to create a clearer picture about who we are, what we want and how to go about reaching our true potential.
This is the work of Linda Dirmeik, creator of Attimo – Attitude - Image – Motivation. "AIM For What You Want" is a Workbook developed and nurtured from Linda's own life experience and research, grew from her observations and concern that somewhere along the way, we lose the power to be all we can be. Negative reinforcements about who we are and what we can do – from the home, school or work environment – add layers of negativity, which seep into our attitude and approach to life. We eventually believe these thoughts, stories and attitudes and use them over and over again, eroding the courage, confidence and belief that we can be any different.
The "AIM For What You Want" workbook creates a reality (devoid of the thinking that limits our potential) around five key areas of life: our social circle, our family, our physical being our ethical being and our career/education.
Creating this reality is a powerful mechanism towards change, growth and unlocking our potential. Linda encourages moms and educators to explore these life management skills for the people whose lives they influence.
