combining highly-trained advisers with an interactive website,
equipping people with information on courses, apprenticeships,
funding, loans and the job market.

“The National Careers Service, universally available to
people at all stages of their careers, has the very best
interactive tools on its website and the highest-quality
advisers, committed to the noble cause of helping
others fulfil their aspirations.”
John Hayes MP
Minister of State for Further Education, Skills &
Lifelong Learning

“We need to inspire people, especially young people,
about career options and all the job opportunities open
to them.
It's a good idea to bring together high-quality, practical
information on a national careers website, to help them
make informed decisions about their future.”Dr Neil Bentley
Deputy Director General, CBI

Design and Usability
Market segmentation Personas – to drive out needs Wireframes Prototypes End user testing Iterative approach
Direction:Clear goal and strong
intention to enter progressive employment
Distance:Close to goal /
potential
Distance:Far from goal /
potential
Direction:Unclear goal and weak
intention to enter progressive employment
Distance would be affected by skills, practical barriers, self-confidence
Direction would be determined by the clarity of the goal that an individual has, their commitment to pursuing it
DispiritedDo not see personal relevance
of skills development
On-track:Skills and goals aligned
and appropriate
TransitionalUndergoing career changeFixated
Inflexible idea of goal which is inappropriate, not acknowledging
lack of relevant skills
Dropped-outLow motivation to work
TrappedLow confidence, low aspiration
‘Would if I could’Have aspiration, lack clear path, motivation blocked by perceived
practical obstacles
