*IOM3 defines 'early career' as meaning someone who is, as of 1 September 2025 (and allows for career breaks, e.g. parental leave):

-within 10 years of the start of their first employment (or self-employment) in a materials, minerals or mining related role, or

-within 6 years of completing their PhD (in a relevant subject), whichever is sooner.

Note - the 10 years from the start of first employment would not normally include any apprenticeships (or equivalent training scheme).
