Environmental Sector – Work Experience
Change works and the Social Enterprise Academy have established a partnership to provide twelve young people from across Scotland with a week-long work experience in the green economy. Changeworks & SEA Work Experience Week 2023
The work experience week is designed to provide insight into the wide range of work available in the environmental sector. Young people will have the opportunity to gain knowledge and experience that will inspire environmental responsibility and steps towards employment in the sector. The young people will interact with different departments across Change works, either undertaking practical work experience, or having the chance to talk to staff from the department about their role and pathways.
The young people will also work together in groups on a research project into green jobs. At the end of the week, they will have the opportunity to present their project and share their findings. The work experience will be virtual, with the possibility of a site visit in person on the last day. It is scheduled to run 13 – 17th of February 2023.
The work experience will be available to twelve young people from across Scotland. Site visits will be co-ordinated in Edinburgh. The Social Enterprise Academy will select the young people who take part in the programme.
