Determined to Succeed is the Scottish Government’s strategy for enterprise in education. At its heart lies successful partnerships between schools and employers. Getting involved in education enables businesses to connect with Scotland’s young talent and its future workforce. It also enables the companies involved to motivate and develop the skills of their current workforce - introducing employees to new and innovative ideas in a stimulating and inspiring environment and in a cost effective way.
