Skills Development Scotland is the national skills body supporting the people and businesses of Scotland to develop and apply their skills. One key area for SDS is Helping Young People find Rewarding Careers and on their myworldofwork website they offer a marketplace where you can search for opportunities posted by employers or use Founders4Schools to find and invite business leaders to a school.
We are delighted to report that Skills Development Scotland
(via the Marketplace )
have referred
22
volunteers to us
and that
13
of these volunteers have already accepted invitations from educators to meet with students.
Together Founders4Schools and Skills Development Scotland have facilitated
13,168
student-employer encounters, with educators having brought
77
business leaders into contact with
4,650
students so they are better prepared for the world of work.
Below you can see a map of the schools these educators are employed by.
