Next Step

Next Step (formerly known as Skills Accounts) is a personalised online service that allows individuals over the age of 18 to take control of their learning and working life.

If you are thinking about learning a new skill or changing direction in career, Next Step will help you to:

  • Identify the skills you have
  • Match those skills needs
  • Choose the right course
  • Find out if there is funding support available
  • Track how much has been spent on your behalf in learning
  • Develop an action plan of your careers assessment to take forward
