Scottish Apprenticeships work by providing thousands of jobs and work-based learning opportunities across the country every year. Developed in partnership with employers, apprenticeships work because they continue to respond to industry needs. As part of Scottish Apprenticeship Week 2022, SDS have developed a series of webinars designed to help demonstrate the many ways that apprenticeships work for Scotland’s people, business and economy.

On this “Equalities – Taking Positive Action in Recruitment through Apprenticeships” webinar we will take a look at the steps you can take, as an employer, to take Positive Action in recruiting Apprentices. You will hear from our equalities team on the support available to employers and from an employer SDS supported to successfully target and recruit MA’s/GA’s to improve the gender and ethnicity balance of their workforce, the results and how they continuing to use this advice and partnerships.
