National Careers Service update

Last April, the National Careers Service was launched.  In the year up to March 2013 it received 33,560 phone calls, 5,384 e-mails, 1,647 text messages and took part in 26,792 web chats.  While this is impressive, there are approximately 4.5 million young people aged 13 to 18 in the UK and so there remains considerable scope for growth in this service.  The NCS website has a wide range of careers tools and advice for you to explore.  Also, Advisers are available to offer careers information, advice and support to 13-19 year olds between 8am and 10pm, seven days a week.  You can contact them by phone ( 0800 number ), text and e-mail or take part in a 1:1 web-chat.  Click 10pm, here for the contact options.
