Working Options in Education helps young people fulfil their potential by developing employability and life skills. Our Career Pathways Programme, delivered in over 120 state schools and colleges, supports young people facing additional challenges caused by the pandemic, prioritising those from disadvantaged regions.

The programme includes self-directed online learning; employability and skills masterclasses; talks from industry volunteers; mentoring; business challenges; and access to opportunities in partner companies.

Since 2010, we have worked to transform the life chances of over 70,000 young people (14-19), by helping them take early control of their education or career journey, when the choices they make will shape their future.
