Skills Scotland is the country's largest careers and skills
event, providing young people, mainly between the ages of
14-19 with information and advice on career and training
opportunities. Among the employers who will be at the event are
Clyde Union Pumps, Gleneagles Hotel, the BBC, Scottish Power and
EDF Energy. Skills Develolpment Scotland will also be there, along
with many colleges and training bodies, to offer advice about
further and higher education, apprenticeships and other forms of
on-the-job training.
The first Skills Scotland in November 2009 was a great success
with well over 7,000 young people meeting with over 50 exhibitors.
The 2010 event will build upon this success and will be even bigger
and more interactive when it takes place again from 9.30am - 3.00pm
on 17 and 18 November 2010 at the SECC in Glasgow. Admission is
free. Skills Scotland is the only national event specifically aimed
at 14-19 year olds and their parents/carers.
