The Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (IfATE) occupational maps

What are the occupational maps and what can I use them for?

The occupational maps are simply a way of showing the relationships that exist between education, qualifications, apprenticeships and occupations in England. We call them maps because they help people to find their way through the careers and training landscape more easily.

The occupational maps let you explore occupations by searching for a specific job, or browsing broader types of jobs. These occupations are shown on cards, along with details of relevant apprenticeships and other technical education qualifications, and possible career progression.

Learners: How you can use the occupational maps

The occupational maps show how apprenticeships, T Levels and other qualifications fit together. The maps can help you to:
