The free ‘One Stop’ resource for career planning and exploration...

The Qdos Careers App is a 'one stop' research resource, bringing together expert, national information on education pathways, career choices and career options, together with tools, career advice and preparation for apprenticeships, university, and employment.

This resource is for providers who deliver encounters in schools, special schools and colleges to support students with learning about all pathways.

In the context of the provider access legislation, a provider is an organisation that offers approved technical education qualifications or their representative, for example an FE college or training provider. The purpose of the resource is to enable providers to effectively engage with schools, special schools and colleges to deliver encounters that have an impact on students and are aligned with the institution’s wider careers education programme.​

This is an editable overview for an academic year of events and specific weeks across the country to support in planning events and the development of a careers education programme.

If you are working to deliver the Gatsby Benchmarks for young people with SEND – in any setting – you will find lots of practical help in this toolkit.

A resource for training providers to give an overview of careers education in England, raise awareness of the value of the Gatsby Benchmarks and share examples of practice from across the sector.
