Young people's experience of careers education

Youth Employment UK CIC [YEUK] wanted to understand more about the current careers education experience of young people. A survey was conducted among 16-24 year olds who had a current or recent experience of careers education services. In this report, YEUK shares the responses of [the] survey, run from October 2014 to January 2015. Young people were asked questions based on the advice they had been given, what that advice was, employer engagement, work related learning and the importance of a good careers education. The views, experiences and recommendations of the young people included [in this report] help decision-makers to reflect on the impact and delivery of current policy. [This] report makes vital reading as it takes account of the end user of this service and the direct impact the service has on outcomes.
