PARTNER WITH A SCHOOL OR COLLEGE
Businesses across Scotland are forming meaningful relationships with schools and other education providers. Here at DYW Forth Valley, we are helping local employers to build and develop these partnerships for the mutual benefit of both parties.
One of the great things about connecting with a local school is that every partnership is different. What this means for you as a business is that a partnership can be tailored to suit the needs of both you and the education provider, meaning that your involvement can be big or small. What matters most is that it brings mutual benefit to your business and to the young people who are the workforce of tomorrow.
