SKILLS DEVELOPMENT SCOTLAND
Offers careers advice, guidance and information to pupils in school, and to people of all ages in Scotland. Careers Advisers offer free and impartial advice on employment, education and training.
In school, pupils will meet a careers adviser in group sessions during PSE or Wellbeing and Attainment, during drop-in appointments and face-to-face coaching, where appropriate. This is supported by Scotland’s careers and information web service My World of Work – see link to the side.

When it comes to moving on from school – there’s increased support for those who need it most from our Work Coaches.
They’ll keep working with young people until they’re in a job, training, apprenticeship or further or higher education.
