The training will cover:

• An overview of the key changes and amendments
• Role of governors: legislation, “explicit backing” of the careers education programme, development of a careers plan
• How to support and be “actively engaged” in your school’s careers education programme. Signposting and links to resources to help your board and your school meet expectations.
