Careers resources from the Society
We have a wealth of careers teaching materials which use case studies and examples from our professional networks, demonstrating geographers using their geographical skills and knowledge in the workplace.
We also provide embeddable activities and guidance as to how you can fully embed careers education into your teaching to enhance learning and encourage your students to choose geography.
If you wish to search and filter our careers materials by topic and key stage, you can do so via our resources for schools (select 'type - careers' first).
