Careers Week is an affordable, fully online conference running seven days straight - open to anyone, anywhere in the world. Talks, masterclasses, portfolio reviews, Q&As, roundtables, and networking all happen on Discord Stage Channels, so you can join and leave whenever you like and build a schedule around your life.
Sessions run 7AM to 10PM BST each day, meaning there's something for attendees across every time zone. In 2025 over 1,400 people attended from across the globe. In 2026 we're going bigger - 60+ sessions, more speakers, and more direct ways to connect with the studios and professionals that can help you move forward.
Digital expo booths - studios, educational institutions, and charities host their own dedicated channels where attendees can drop in, meet the team, ask questions, explore open roles, and learn more about projects, programmes, or courses on offer.
