The Spring issue of PlumbHeat is out now!

In this issue, we caught up with Ben Macpherson, Minister for Higher and Further Education, to learn about the Government’s upcoming education reforms and how this will affect the future of apprenticeships in Scotland.

We also publish our election manifesto calling for a stronger funding partnership that will deliver higher completion rates, greater workforce capacity and improved consumer protection. While we hear from political parties from across the spectrum on how they would protect apprenticeships and tackle Scotland’s skills shortage.

Also in this issue, Scott Sanford explores the benefits of ACCS membership and how it can take your business to the next level, we hear from affiliate Lawton Tubes about their work to secure the supply chain, and we detail the latest results from our Q4 State of Trade report.
