Mock Cop 27

DYWICH Digital Media Foundation Apprentice Julia Turczyn attended MockCop27 and created a GREAT visual story of the day. Julia joined us back in September and has been helping us with our digital and social media marketing campaigns. Pupils can embark on a Foundation Apprenticeship when they are still in S5 and S6 which means they get the chance to gain valuable work experience alongside their studies. It’s a great way of boosting confidence and getting young people excited about potential future careers. Eilidh Edgar, our Programme Manager said: “We are delighted to welcome Julia to team DYWICH and look forward to continue working with her. She has contributed so much to the team already and brought a new perspective on things. Her creativity, enthusiasm and willingness to get involved in all our digital communications has been invaluable. At DYWICH, one of our key objectives is to be able to communicate what we do to young people and Julia has helped us enormously with this.” To find out more about Foundation Apprenticeships visit https://www.apprenticeships.scot/become-an-apprentice/foundation-apprenticeships/
