Developing the Young Workforce (DYW) Shetland is one of 21 regional groups across Scotland that has been introduced by the Scottish Government to help produce better qualified, work ready and motivated young people with the skills relevant to modern employment opportunities, both as employees and entrepreneurs of the future.
The DYW Shetland Regional Group Board was established in 2018 and they, along with the Project Officer, are responsible for improving links between education and work and increasing opportunities for local young people.
We have a particular focus on developing the right skills for Shetland's employment market, paying particular attention to the needs of emerging sectors. The work we undertake will help young people in Shetland explore all of the options available to them and prepare them for the world of work both in Shetland and beyond.
