“HES are delighted to be partnering with DYW and CCSkills and the many creative and cultural organisations involved to develop Discover! Creative Careers national careers week. Continuing to engage young people with their heritage is a core priority for HES and this programme allows us to further highlight the diverse careers and career pathways available across the arts and heritage sectors.” 
​Alison Turnbull, Director of External Relations and Partnerships, HES

“Young people, their educators and their parents really benefit from hearing from individuals who work within industry. This kind of insight supports them to position their studies, think about their options and choices and ultimately make informed decisions on their next steps, so Discover! Creative Careers Scotland is an invaluable resource for raising awareness of the creative and cultural industries. We hope more businesses from within the sector will join us to share their own insight, and ultimately support the Young Person’s Guarantee, during this launch week.” 
​Rachael Dorman, Developing the Young Workforce Programme Coordinator

“Discover! Creative Careers has been one of our flagship programmes over the last few years that has continued to build momentum and industry support in the face of ever-challenging circumstances. We have seen first-hand the positive difference real encounters with our world leading industry can have on young people’s understanding of creative careers, in turn supporting thousands of young people to make better informed career choices. We’re thrilled to be piloting the programme in Scotland in partnership with Developing the Young Workforce and Historic Environment Scotland, providing first-time insights into real job roles and creative workplaces for hundreds of young people across Scotland.”
