Mental health support for apprentices
Skills Development Scotland (SDS) administers Scottish Apprenticeships on behalf of Scottish Government.
An apprenticeship involves working towards a qualification whilst working at the job. Apprentices are therefore staff members and are also students.
Learning providers can include colleges, universities, independent learning providers or local authorities.
Skills Development Scotland have a dedicated Scottish Apprenticeships website, which has mental health resources and organisations who can offer support.
They have developed a mental health and wellbeing support guide for apprentices, which can be downloaded below.
