Let's use Scottish Apprenticeship Week to dispel some myths surrounding apprenticeships! 💜 As we've seen throughout this week, apprenticeships offer tremendous opportunities for learners, employers, and the Scottish economy. Their positive impact extends across various industries - it's not confined to any one sector like some may assume! At North East Scotland College, we offer a diverse range of apprenticeships in partnership with employers across multiple subject areas.
