Recent research by careers staff across the higher education sector, including the University of Westminster, challenges preconceptions that disabled graduates are much more likely to have difficulty finding work.

 

 

The research, which has taken place annually since 2003, reveals many disabled graduates are finding higher level employment than non disabled graduates. However, it is still important to plan your career effectively and to take advantage of any available support.

 

These pages have been designed to help you improve your career planning, market yourself more effectively, raise your awareness of support services and widen your employment opportunities.
