Abstract

Sustainable education is aimed at helping the countries' governments to find the most effective solutions and implement the changes that will make societies more stable and resilient. Inclusive education is designed not only to address educational inequalities, but also to provide citizenship education for people with disabilities. This feature includes willingness to take responsibility for the consequences of their decisions and choices, career choice included. The article considers the results of the study of career choice and the assessment of vocational guidance of 259 young disabled people of 17-20 years old who are at the stage of choosing a route for vocational education. The aim of the study is to assess the vocational guidance of young disabled people in educational sustainable development content. The results presented in the article show that young people with disabilities have serious vocational guidance deficiencies. The ideas about their career prospects and arguments for choosing a career prove immaturity in terms of taking responsibility for their professional choice and awareness of their career prospects. Passive position, lack of initiative characterize young disabled people in terms of choosing their career, their vocational self-determination. The analysis of individual career profiles showed pronounced difficulties in understanding by young people with disabilities their resources, capabilities, limitations and qualities that are significant for choosing a career. The obtained results prove that young people with disabilities need special assistance in vocational guidance and career choice. Such assistance, implemented in the aspect and methodology of ideas for educational sustainable development content, is designed to form special competencies of young people with disabilities. These competencies are designed to ensure the formation of predictive models of their career prospects, the acceptance of responsibility for career choice and the desire for independent life.
