About the Careers Hub

The South East Midlands Careers Hub is part of a national network of centres of excellence on a mission to improve the careers outcomes for young people. 

Our role is to connect together local employers with careers leaders in schools, colleges and training providers to coordinate careers education and enhance each student's early experiences of the work place. The South East Midlands Careers Hub will be building on the success of Careers Hub Luton, by strengthening and expanding support to around 150 schools, and multiple colleges and providers across Bedfordshire and Luton, Milton Keynes and Northamptonshire. 

Hub-supported programmes bring partners together, to act with the shared aims of inspiring young people, and giving students the knowledge and practical skills to make decisions about their next steps. 

Five priorities areas for the South East Midlands Careers Hub are: 

  1. Connecting careers provision in schools and colleges to the needs of the local economy
  2. Targeting interventions for economically disadvantaged young people, those who face additional barriers and those at risk of leaving school and not continuing training for getting a job
  3. Amplifying the opportunities of apprenticeships, technical and vocational routes into work
  4. Facilitating more, high quality experiences with employers for students and teachers
  5. Embedding best practice (known as the 8 Gatsby Benchmarks) in careers provision in schools and colleges

The South East Midlands Careers Hub is funded by the Careers and Enterprise Company, together with The Connolly Foundation, Luton Borough Council, Tresham College (part of the Bedford College Group) and SEMLEP.
