School pupils can hear from a range of apprentices and their employers about what it is like to take an apprenticeship. They can choose up to four 30 minute sessions each day during Scottish Apprenticeship week (6th-10th March 2023). Apprentices and employers from a range of sectors will feature and some sessions will discuss current and future apprenticeship vacancies.

Also during Scottish Apprenticeship week, young people can follow the hashtag #ApprenticeShop on social media to get a better insight into what apprenticeships are like. Apprentices, employers and learning providers will share lots of information about apprenticeships across the country from a range of sectors including details about current and future vacancies, stories, films and more.
