Abstract

Tony Watts is probably best known for his role as Director of NICEC from 1975 to 2001, and for his work as an international policy expert on careers guidance, but in 1973, prior to establishing NICEC, Tony was Head of the Research and Development Unit at CRAC and he published one of the first articles setting out a suggested list of objectives for a careers education programme. This article examines his contribution to careers education policy, theory and practice over the 40 years that followed, from his work with Bill Law on the DOTS framework to his promotion of the Blueprint in several countries in the present century.
