Please join us next week in taking part in the #DiscoverCreativeCareers campaign, part of the Creative Careers Programme.
Careers opportunities in the creative industries are increasing daily with employment in the sector growing three times faster than the rest of the UK economy. This growth shows no signs of slowing down, yet many young people and those that support their career choices aren’t aware of the breadth of roles and vast areas of work available – we want to change that.
Taking place across England from 18th – 22nd November, Discover! Creative Careers Week will see over 500 employers from across the creative industries opening their doors to thousands of young people to inspire and inform the next generation of workers. During the week, young people will get to learn about animation with the creators of Peppa Pig, go back stage at the National Theatre, use interactive 3D computer modelling with XSite Architecture in Newcastle, explore individual career paths by interviewing the team at Tate Liverpool, get a taste of the world of publishing with Hachette, and understand how a film is promoted and distributed with Sony, plus much more.
The Discover! Creative Careers Week campaign aims to not only celebrate the activities taking place during the week, but also to highlight the sheer number of roles available within the creative industries and the pathways into them, by putting real names and faces behind the job titles with Discover! My Creative Career and supporting the campaign on social media. So even if you’re not hosting an event, you can still get involved.
The Discover! Creative Careers Week Campaign Pack contains various key messages, templates and tools that will support your involvement in the campaign so we can reach a much wider audience and demonstrate the commitment of the sector. Click here to download the pack.
Be sure to tag us in your Discover! Creative Careers Week posts using @CreativeCareer5 and #DiscoverCreativeCareers.
