New Leaf Career Guidance

New Leaf is the name of the unique career guidance software for spinal cord injured (SCI) people. The idea originated from SCI specialist occupational therapists who told us that traditional career guidance software could often be a dispiriting experience for SCI people to use. This is because it takes no account of, for example, tetraplegics, and just assumes that a wheelchair user can do any job sitting down!

New Leaf takes career guidance a step further by taking into account the needs of those with limited hand and arm movement as well as wheelchair users.
