WELCOME

Welcome to the ICCDPP web site. (You may now register and log in. It is really helpful to us if you register to give us an idea of the user profile of the site). The main purpose of this web site is to facilitate international policy learning through the sharing of knowledge, information, and experience relevant to the contribution of guidance to the achievement of public policy goals in education, training, employment and social inclusion. You may access policy papers, studies and reports posted on the web site in a number of ways: through the Policy and Research gateway or through the Resources gateway. In the Articles Repository section of the Resources gateway, policy papers, studies and reports are organised from the most recently placed on the site to the past by theme and by country, international institution, and world region area. The country category is also used to code documents according to language. Dr Gideon Arulmani (India), animator, welcomes contributions and participation from developing countries in the discussion Forum titled GLEN Developing Countries Network. Again please use the Thread for your questions, comments and suggestions. We also welcome you sharing with the international community on this web site any relevant policy papers, studies and reports in your own language related to the Policy and Research areas for career guidance/development.
