WHO
ARE CLASS CAREERS?
We’re a social enterprise that connects you
with big employers across the country.
Quick Quiz: What is a social enterprise? Social enterprises trade to tackle social problems, improve communities, people's life chances, or the environment. They make their money from selling goods and services in the open market, but they reinvest their profits back into the business or the local community.
Our aim is to end inequality in careers education.
