National Careers Week (NCW) is a brand that aims to provide a week-long celebration of careers guidance and free resources in education across the UK. It is a dedicated week every year that allows schools, colleges, universities, alternative provision settings, and organizations to work together in supporting young people's awareness and excitement about their future pathways. NCW offers high-quality printable, downloadable, digital, and video resources for educators to support planning and delivery throughout the year.

These resources link education with the world of employment, ensuring that students gain important insights into the future of work and further learning. The brand also collaborates with partner organizations to offer bespoke packages that increase awareness, inform, and inspire young people on their career journeys. NCW's long-standing association with NatWest Group exemplifies its commitment to helping students, educators, and parents make informed choices about their careers.

With a focus on sustainability, NCW also launched Green Careers Week to promote environmentally friendly career options. So, whether you're a student, educator, or organization, NCW provides the resources and support needed to navigate the world of careers effectively
