Scottish Careers Week 2024: Shape the Future


Scottish Careers Week


Now in its fourth year, Scottish Careers Week is a Skills Development Scotland campaign. The campaigns aims to shine a light on the career support that's available to everyone across Scotland.

Scottish Careers Week is a great opportunity for young people across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire to learn about the different industry sectors, career pathways and job opportunities here in the North-east of Scotland.
