National Careers Week 2025 (NCW25) has returned. This week is all about celebrating careers guidance and resources in education across the UK. NCW25 aims to highlight the importance of career guidance in the academic calendar to support young people leaving education.

Here at The Welding Institute, we support young aspiring engineering career development. The knowledge around the different types of careers there are in engineering and welding is limited. We want to expand younger peoples’ knowledge around such careers and expand their knowledge on the subjects. The Welding Institute’s Younger Members Committee (YMC) is dedicated to engaging younger engineers in a supportive professional network, to encourage and assist their professional and career development. The YMC offers a variety of resources aimed at younger engineers and also holds FREE webinars for anyone at whatever stage in their career.
