There’s a new easy way for schools and colleges in Scotland to connect with employers – Marketplace.
Marketplace is a simple, easy to use online tool. Employers can register to use Marketplace and start passing on knowledge of their sector through workshops, talks or workplace visits. Your school or college can use Marketplace to search for the opportunities posted by employers or use Founders4Schools to find and invite business leaders to an event.
