National Work Experience Month in July

As part of July’s National Work Experience Month we encourage you to highlight and promote a range of relevant geography work experience opportunities to your students!

These may include placements with environmental organisations, local authorities, planning consultancies, or virtual programmes focused on areas such as climate science, sustainability, and GIS.

We have suggested a selection of useful links and current opportunities to share with your students. Supporting students to take part in meaningful work experience can enhance their understanding of real-world geography, build key employability skills, and inform future study and career pathways.

Opportunities:

• British Antarctic Survey
• British Geological Survey
• Environment Agency
• Field Studies Council
• Met Office
• Ordnance Survey
• Royal Geographical Society
