East Careers Week
From 2-5 March 2026, explore creative and innovative industries at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park through immersive workshops, insightful panel discussions and open-ended tours of the industry at East Careers Week, delivered by East Education.
East Careers Week is designed to inspire young people and help provide them with a well-rounded view of the expanding career options across the Park and surrounding areas.
From designing illustrations inspired by London College of Fashion archives to reimagining rail stations, unpacking financial careers with FCA, or stepping behind-the-scenes with visual technicians at ABBA Voyage, there are endless opportunities for students to be exposed to a range of subjects, activities and industries.
To ensure places reach the right pupils, bookings must be made by educators working in secondary or formal learning settings with post-16 students in Hackney, Newham, Tower Hamlets or Waltham Forest.
Book by Friday 13 February 2026 to give your students the opportunity to explore some of the fast-growing sectors, build practical skills, and gain the confidence and understanding needed to take their next steps toward future careers.

About East Careers Week
East Careers is delivered by East Education, a cross-organisational effort between LLDC and our world-leading East Bank partners; BBC, UCL, UAL's London College of Fashion, V&A and Sadler's Wells. The programme also features collaborations from other incredible local partners.
Together, we link local young people, teachers and parents to the exciting institutions, university and sectors unique to Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, offering access to our programme exploring creative, digital, design and built environment careers and pathways. We aim to provide young people with transferable employment skills needed for future jobs in any industry, as well as provide a space for wider discussions around careers, wellbeing and work culture.
We want to empower teachers and career leads to embed a high quality careers programme into their schools, linking to Gatsby measures and Ofsted expectations. Not just this, we aim to equip parents and guardians with information and knowledge about future careers to be able to support their child to navigate their next steps.
