Qdos Career Hub

The Career Development Policy Group has published an important update of the Career Guidance Guarantee and a summary paper - next stage to discuss with DfE and Alex Burghart careerdpg.co.uk/career-guidanc…

Delighted to share that all the ground work checks have been completed on the Rotherham site. We are still on path to launch this autumn! Collaborative working with careers leaders and adult guidance (NCS and DWP) means that we have two draft programmes of activities ready to go.

Great to take part in the YP roundtable debate today. Everyone agreed that while the building blocks are in place, there are still gaps and challenges. A new careers strategy, embracing a Career Guidance Guarantee would provide clarity for citizens and clear targets for providers

Sir John Holman, David Morgan (CDI), myself (Qdos Education) and lots of others are presenting at the Next Steps for Careers Advice in England conference on the morning of 26 January -westminsterforumprojects.co.uk/agenda/Careers…

The #youthunemployment Committee of the House of Lords has published its report, 'Skills for every young person'. The report is insightful and shares lots of ideas, with a strong focus on greater investment in career guidance.twitter.com/LordsYouthUnem…

Sir John Armitt, former chair of C&G, is right - we need an education and skills commission to advise government. The skills system is crying out for a long term strategy. Skills provision is not all on the shoulders of education, it should be part of every employers cost base.

Robert Halfon, Chair of the Education Select Committee in the House of Commons (Parliament) understands the importance of careers education and guidance for all. This is top of this 'wish list' to help ensure we deliver on 'levelli…lnkd.in/dAzDiFqV lnkd.in/dhh8_FeY

Over 3000 pre GCSE pupils have contributed to the "The Big Career Conversation with Young People in England" sponsored by LaunchYourCareer and researched and written by DMH Associates - lnkd.in/e4FNj3y. No surprise, what they want is more career guidance!

The Career Development Policy Group is launching a call for a new Career Guidance Guarantee on 20th Oct. See CDI website for details. Attending the online launch event is free! (Qdos Education is part of the CDPG).

Delighted to share the news that Qdos Education has appointed DMH Associates to lead on the first phase of our impact and evaluation strategy for the new Qdos Career Hubs.

First report of the Lifelong Education Commission. Lots of good stuff on levelling up and re-skilling/up skilling and a recommendation to establish a single, national Careers Service to improve the visibility and quality of CEIAG for learners of all ages. Hurrah!

@pigironjoe Maybe that's why there are so many untaken seats?!
