students + Business + creative Challenge = Career insight

Creative Careers Cafe Events form the heart of our flagship careers and skills programme, delivered to students in key stage 2 and upwards into Further Education

Creative Careers Cafes are lively, interactive events focusing on showcasing professionals working primarily in the creative and digital industries. Students have the opportunity to have meaningful encounters and conversations with employers and industry experts.

Students will focus on a task that reflects the world of work alongside the professionals. Our events encourage positive engagement and provide opportunities to learn from local role models about their own career journey, life experiences and develop an understanding of job roles within their industry.

Each Creative Careers Cafe is a bespoke co-designed event that can accommodate a specific cohort of students. We focus on the creative and digital industries but we can also source proffesionals from spific industries as required.

"The programmes are well organised, fully interactive and evaluated and have hugely increased the meaningful employer encounters. The originality of their format has been proven to be engaging for pupils of all ages"
