At the Historical Association, we appreciate the great deal of thought that goes into deciding next steps, and we want to help. The History careers Day promises to be a great event. There will be representation and information from many of the major careers associated with History, as well as those careers that History is not always a first thought for, but nonetheless a highly desirable qualification. Students will be amazed at the opportunities that History can bring. There will be the chance to wander around and gather careers information from exhibitors as well as a keynote speech and the chance to take part in career related workshops that our exhibitors will deliver to provide students with a taster and information about that particular career. With participation from the British Library, Roehampton Teaching Institute, Deloittes, Price Waterhouse Cooper, Hodder Publishers, the Police, Facing History, The Dartford Messenger, The Army, Greenwich Maritime Museum, plus many more, the day promises to be inspiring and informative for history students thinking about what to do next. We look forward to seeing you there!
