About

Top CareersTM is a careers resource published by Essex-based company Loop Games Publishing Limited. It is part of a range of educational resource card games called Loop Card Games based on the Top Trumps concept launched in 2005 by physics teacher and full time mother Eiman Munro.

The Top Careers card games support the National Curriculum and the newly launched Diploma initiative and have been designed to help educate students aged 14-19 years on science, mathematics and engineering related careers. Plans are also in the pipeline for construction and IT careers cards.

In 2006 the product won an Innovation Award from the London Development Agency as well as a Merit Award from the Enterprise Pavilion at the Arts Institution in Bournemouth for its promising business plan.

All Top Careers cards are sponsored by a well known company related to the industry; for example, British Airways sponsors the Airline Pilot Career Card.

Top Careers is a card game. Each card has five icons based on the key skills required for the career; for example numeracy, computer skills and communication ability. The game is played in the same way as Top Trumps where the score corresponds with the key skill needed for each career.

Top Careers and Loop Card Games are available for distribution throughout educational institutions and consumer retail outlets.
