Career Development NOS – Your chance to tell us what you think

3 Dec 2010 01:39 PM

Our online review of the draft National Occupational Standards (NOS) for Career Development roles is now open.  This new set of NOS covers a broad range of roles, including: career and educational information advice and guidance; and employability support within the lifelong learning sector.

NOS are practical resource tools with the ability to support staff at every level of the workforce. They can be used to support the full range of human resource development activities including performance management, training and development, and recruitment and selection. Long term benefits include increased effectiveness, reduced workloads, and a reduction in resource expenditure.

We are keen to gather feedback from those working in the sector to ensure the new NOS are fit-for-purpose for use across the UK.
