Last week we were proud to host the Scottish Games Education Symposium at West College Scotland, bringing together educators, industry leaders and creative partners to shape the future of Scotland’s games talent pipeline. From the unveiling of the revised HN Games Qualification to the first steps toward a new Scottish Games Skills Forum, it was an inspiring day of collaboration and momentum for our sector. 🎮 #ScottishGames #SGEN #GamesEducation #CreativeIndustries #ScotlandIsCreative #SkillsForTheFuture #HNGames #WestCollegeScotland #ScotlandDigital #FutureTalent

West recently gathered feedback from our industry partners on the impact of our apprenticeship programmes and the comments were overwhelmingly positive. Here is what just a few of our employers had to say... "Working in partnership with West College Scotland allows us to nurture talent within the local communities to our sites, ensuring apprentices develop the skills, confidence and industry experience that set them and our organisation up for long‑term success. Scottish Apprenticeship Week is a brilliant reminder of the impact apprentices make every day, and we’re incredibly proud to support and invest in the next generation of Scotland’s workforce.” Rebecca Cope, Emerging Talent Manager, Babcock #ScotAppWeek26 #WorkingforScotland

Did you know 9 out of 10 employers say apprenticeships significantly improved job performance. “Our apprentices have learned from the vast experience of our colleagues around them, while our associates have benefited from opportunities to mentor, support, and unlock potential in others. We have consistently seen our apprentices grow in confidence and capability, progressing into skilled roles that directly contribute to our ambitious plans for growth.” Claire Dawson, Senior Career Development Advisor at Terumo Aortic #ScotAppWeek26 #WorkingforScotland

We welcomed Paul McGarry and Harley Higgins from Aggreko on to campus today to meet our Engineering Systems apprentices and to talk about their vacancies. Harley is in the final year of his Modern Apprenticeship with Aggreko, having previously completed a Foundation Apprenticeship in Engineering Systems, so it was great for our current apprentices to see where their path may lead. We are extremely grateful to Aggreko for their ongoing support, and look forward to following our current Foundation Apprenticeship cohort when they undertake work experience with Aggreko later this year. #ScotAppWeek26 #WorkingforScotland

Huge well done to our FA Construction students working with Morrison Construction on a real work-based challenge! Students designed, built, and painted benches using materials donated by Morrison Construction, which will be gifted to Paisley Grammar High School. Regular progress checks from industry pros made this a brilliant hands-on learning experience. #ScotAppWeek26 #WorkingforScotland
