Our participatory research entitled ‘Carry on! The development of lifelong guidance services supporting lifelong learning through the training of professionals in the field of special needs education and employment’ maps the experiences of disabled students in the Hungarian school system and focused on their networks. We have integrated the results of our research organically into training and curriculum development, strengthening the availability of lifelong guidance and future planning topics in the courses offered at the Eötvös Loránd University Bárczi Gusztáv Faculty of Special Needs Education.
