  member organisations may make use of the Enquiry Service for enquiries on specific issues
• ADSET publishes a directory of sources of career and lifetime learning information (Opportunity) and a termly newsletter about careers software (Careers Software News) in conjunction with Pete Hulse of ICT in CEG
• a weblog (blog) with an emphasis on news items which will or may affect the advice and guidance which practitioners provide (link here)
• specialist "newsletters" geared to an organisation's requirements for example European legislation on packaging, movement science abstracts from various journals

Hazel Edmunds manages the service from a small office in Kettering, Northamptonshire which she shares with Leonora Clarke of The Accounting Bureau (UK) Ltd.
