Employer Webinar | Work Placements for School Pupils

Work placements give young people a meaningful window into the world of work. Employers can offer work placement opportunities for senior phase pupils via Aberdeenshire Council’s Foundation Apprenticeship team, who provide them with ongoing support and guidance.

Aberdeenshire Council delivers a range of Foundation Apprenticeships for senior secondary pupils in our region. These qualifications combine classroom and work-based learning, and are linked to regional and national labour market opportunities.

Employers can get involved with Foundation Apprenticeships by offering young people a work placement as part of their qualification. This experience has multiple benefits: the young person gains a valuable insight into the world of work, while the employer has access to fresh ideas and the opportunity to develop future talent.
