Together with Skills Development Scotland we share the view that young people are passionate about looking after our planet; their voice has been heard around the world, and now there is a need to do more to tackle climate change.
As part of our collaboration with Skills Development Scotland to celebrate Scottish Careers Week 2021 we have developed a Student Led podcast series TechFest Talks. We believe that these series have not only informed our podcast hosts of the opportunities to turn their passion into a career as they meet Industry Professionals featured in the series, but also have an opportunity to develop their individual skills and inspire our podcast listeners.
