Greater Lincolnshire Careers Hub
1 followerAbout the Careers Hub
The national body for careers education in England is The Careers & Enterprise Company (CEC).
The Greater Lincolnshire Careers Hub is delivered locally via Lincolnshire County Council (in partnership with regional partners) with the mission to strengthen careers education for young people by directly engaging schools, colleges, apprenticeship providers and employers across the region.
Across England, Careers Hubs operate as strategic partnerships between the CEC and local/regional bodies (e.g., Combined Authorities, Local Enterprise Partnerships) to support schools, colleges and employers.
Careers Hubs have been shown to drive up standards of careers education by supporting progress against the Gatsby Benchmarks of good careers guidance.
