Download your Deaf Works Everywhere toolkit
The Deaf Works Everywhere toolkit and resources can help you provide specific careers advice for deaf young people aged 13-25.
How to use the toolkit and resources
The toolkit includes eight lesson plans with simple and flexible activities for different age ranges. You can choose to run the programme as a full day course or split it up into separate sessions.
You can also combine these activities with your existing careers advice sessions. Feel free to amend or adapt the activities to suit your needs.
To help guide you in using this toolkit, we have created online learning modules that will be useful in providing some background and tips to run the courses. The guide is available in English and Welsh.
Each toolkit and resources have been tailored to the nation you work in.
