Celebrating Scottish Apprenticeship Week 2023

Glasgow Caledonian will celebrate Scottish Apprenticeship Week 2023 with a series of events with employers, colleges and schools.

As the largest provider of Graduate Apprenticeships in Scotland, we work collaboratively with employers to offer life-changing opportunities to more than 270 Graduate Apprentices.

Scottish Apprenticeship Week, which runs from March 6-10, will this year showcase the vital role apprenticeships play in supporting people, employers and the economy.

On Monday, March 6, Glasgow Caledonian will kick off the week with two interactive workshops in Cambuslang with our industry partner IDSystems UK to promote Graduate Apprenticeship opportunities in Engineering (Design and Manufacture).

In the afternoon, we will be working with West Lothian College to promote the range of GA programmes we offer.

On Wednesday, March 8, Glasgow Caledonian will take part in Scottish Engineering’s Unlocking Potential Through Apprenticeships event in Glasgow, discussing our BEng Hons Engineering (Design and Manufacture) and BSc Hons Environmental Civil Engineering programmes.
