Guidance

A new handbook from the Global Business Coalition for Education shows how businesses can become more disability-inclusive and improve their bottom line.

The report offers an evidence-led how-to guide for businesses on improving their education, training, and employment for young people with disabilities. The report contains advice to business leaders seeking to improve their performance on disability inclusion, and it makes clear why disability inclusion plays a vital role in modern business, not an optional extra.

Together Matters has produced a guide to encourage conversations and planning so more people with learning disabilities are part of the world of work.

People need many more opportunities to think, and talk, about the world of work. Also, to meet those with local jobs and businesses. Local organisations and businesses need to see that people with learning disabilities are keen to find work and have lots to contribute.

Youth Employment UK has now created a Kickstart Guide for Employers to help support and advise them to create a good quality Kickstart Programme for the Candidate.

This resource has been created by Youth Employment UK to support employers and gateway organisations looking to create Kickstart Programmes. We have consulted with the young people in our network to explore what a good Kickstart Programme would look like to them and have embedded their views into this guidance.
