Survey - Effective career development for young people with disability

The Careers Industry Council of Australia (CICA) has engaged Miles Morgan to develop guidelines for effective career development services for young people (15-24) with disability.

As part of their research, they are conducting a targeted survey of stakeholders operating in the disability services sector. The survey aims to identify common career challenges and barriers faced by young people with disability and to discover effective practices to support their career development.

The survey is located at the following link https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/XBJ592Q

The feedback will be used to assist in developing guidelines that provide practical support for service providers. The survey will be closing on Friday the 6th of January, 2012.

If you would like more information about this survey, or the project in general, please contact RobAllen, Research Associate, Miles Morgan, by phone on (08) 9228 8089or email at robert@milesmorgan.com.au.

How a Professor Gave a Blind Student a New Outlook on Science
