Our Flagship programme is The National Careers Challenge – the largest careers and enterprise competition in the UK with over 400,000 young people taking part to date. Through a series of activities, students get the chance to solve a real business challenge set by our corporate sponsors and develop the essential skills they need to thrive in whichever career pathway they choose.

The Inspirational Learning Group is part of Dev Clever PLC, who are also the innovators behind the world’s first career search and discovery platform Launch Your Career. Since the acquisition in the summer of 2021, the company is building the foundations of the world’s first social and skills network that is set to transform the way the world learns, trains and prepares for the world of work.

The National Careers Challenge

Schools can also upgrade to take part in The National Careers Challenge, an interactive programme delivered in school as an enterprise day, hosted by our experienced facilitators. Schools can choose from several different challenges set by real employers such as NatWest, Thorpe Park, Air Products and more!

Winning teams from every school are invited to the LIVE FINAL at the ICC in Birmingham to pitch their winning idea to a panel of judges, and battle for the title in a Britain’s Got Talent meets Dragon’s Den style event!  The competition challenges young people to solve real business problems designed by leading employers and aims to support the development of key transferable skills such as teamwork, leadership and creativity.
