Scottish Apprenticeship Week 2025 takes place from 3 to 7 March, with the theme Made for Business. 

The campaign will show that apprenticeships are made for business, people and Scotland’s economy. 

Scottish Apprenticeships are created in partnership with employers, for employers, making skilled individuals that benefit their businesses.  

Apprenticeships are critical to help grow and expand the nation’s workforce, giving people skills to thrive. 

There are currently around 12,000 apprentice employers in Scotland, investing in approximately 40,000 apprentices. 

Foundation, Modern and Graduate Apprenticeships are available in Scotland’s key sectors, providing opportunities for people to get the skills employers want.  

Businesses say that Modern Apprentices help boost productivity and enable them to benefit from staff retention, with nearly 9 in 10 qualified apprentices still working with the employer they started their apprenticeship with. 

Modern Apprentice achievement rates are high and research shows that their wellbeing is higher than the general population. 

Employers of all sizes across Scotland are investing in apprenticeships to find talent and diversify their workforce. 

Over 90% of Modern Apprentices highly rate their training from learning providers and employers.
