About us
Careers My World of Work offers career information and advice to adults. It’s brought to you by Skills Development Scotland (SDS), Scotland’s national skills agency. The site is designed to support you to develop your career management skills, no matter what stage you’re at in your career.
Your careers support is changing
On Monday 3 June a brand-new My World of Work is launching. All the careers support you need will be in one place, with a fresh look and improved features.
You can keep using Careers My World of Work as normal until 3 June but after that, the site will close.
Check out our FAQs to find out how to get ready for the change
