About Us

History

Careers Europe was created in 1992 as a joint initiative of the Careers Service Branch and the careers service in Bradford, to act as a national resource centre for UK careers services. It was recognised that with the creation of the Single European Market in that year, and the freedom of movement this granted UK citizens, that there was a need for a centre of expertise, able to research and interpret careers information on the member states of the European Union and to present that information in a clear and accessible way for guidance counsellors in the UK. The role of the Careers Europe rapidly developed as other organisations began to make use of Careers Europe, as the centre became recognised as the UK centre for information on other countries, whether in the EU or not, and with the creation of the Euroguidance network by the European Commission.
