Get Involved in Work Experience Week 2026
Now in it’s third year, DYW Ayrshire is launching its Work Experience Week campaign to highlight the importance and wide range of benefits of the school work experience programme for employers, educators and young people.
The campaign, supported by our host organisation Ayrshire Chamber of Commerce, will run from Monday 1st to Friday 5th June. Throughout the week, we’ll be sharing stories and insights across social media using the hashtag #WEW26, helping to promote, showcase, and celebrate the value of work experience.
By featuring real-life examples from employers, educators and young people, the campaign will give you a deeper understanding of the programme. It’s also an opportunity to share your own success stories, highlight the benefits, and inspire more employers to get involved.
We want you to tell us:
- What the programme means to you
- How it benefits your business
- How it helps young people discover their career path
- Why you would recommend other employers to take part
