Scottish Apprenticeship Week

Scottish Apprenticeship Week is an annual national celebration of apprenticeships. During the week, apprentices, employers and training providers alike join together to shout about the benefits that work-based learning brings to businesses, people and the economy. 

Apprenticeships in Scotland are a key tool in our response to challenges which face our national economy and our workforce.

During Scottish Apprenticeship Week 2025, we’ll be shining a light on some of our Foundation and Modern Apprentices as well as showcasing our unique facilities which allow apprentices to hone their skills in a real-world environment.
