Learning for career success

Learning for career success

Learning for career success is a new website for the support workforce in business and admin and estates and facilities roles. It enables users to find out more about work-based qualifications and how to access these using a handy qualifications finder.

Alongside providing a qualifications finder, Learning for Career Success also has information on:

• recognition of prior learning
• personal development planning
• how to create an inclusive workplace

The website also provides a platform for anyone interested in a support workforce role and includes links to the NHSScotland Careers website and routes to finding NHS Scotland vacancies.

Laura Christie, senior specialist lead, widening access team said:

“Learning for career success aligns with our research and evaluation recommendations around work-based learning and career development for the support workforce. It has been created to help them explore options to develop in their current role, find inspiration from others or learn about careers with the NHS.”

Feedback from a user of the new website:

“This has encouraged me to think about my development within the NHS. I found the qualification finder helpful as it allows people to have a better insight into what they are looking for and how it can support their continuing professional development.”
