Scottish apprenticeship success stories
"My apprenticeship has given me very rewarding opportunities within my workplace. It has not only improved my confidence and knowledge in different IT sectors but helped me earn my new office manager job role."
"Doing an apprenticeship has taught me multiple valuable skills to develop myself as a person both in and out of the workplace, whilst teaching me relevant, useful knowledge, that I have already noticed myself apply to my everyday work."
QA Scottish Apprenticeship Awards
Our annual QA Scotland Apprenticeship Awards celebrate the dedication, hard work, and contributions of our apprentices. This event brings together individuals and organisations to share outstanding achievements in the apprenticeship landscape.
In 2025 we hosted our 3rd annual QA Scotland Apprenticeship Awards ceremony on March 13th at Wunderbar, Glasgow, where hundreds of clients and apprentices gathered to celebrate. Application forms open in October each year.
