Occupational Maps
What job / career do you want to do?
All Apprenticeships, Higher Technical Qualifications, and T Levels are based on occupations recognised by employers. The Occupational Maps bring these together to show where technical education can lead. There are 15 maps, one for each route.
Explore a map by clicking on its name or the green chevron. Search for a specific occupation name using the Search for an occupation box.
