Taste the Industry: Inspiring the Next Generation
The DYW West team had the great pleasure of taking part in the Taste the Industry Hospitality Event organised by Tennent's Training Academy and Tree of Knowledge on the 20th of September at Linwood High School. This was a fantastic event that saw local hospitality employers take over the school for the day to allow them to run interactive workshops with the pupils.
At the start of the day, 10 of the 100 pupils involved expressed their passion to work within the hospitality industry, but by the end of the day this figure had risen to 90 out of 100. A tremendous example of employer-school partnerships and the developing the young workforce agenda in action!

STEM Fortnight 2016 in West Dunbartonshire
We are extremely excited to be organising STEM Fortnight in West Dunbartonshire between the 3rd and the 13th of October. The practical activities hosted by local employers will provide an opportunity for S3 pupils to learn more about the career opportunities available through STEM and quiz senior management about the skills required to work in each industry. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the employers who have devised engaging workshops for the young people across West Dunbartonshire!
