We’re supporting the Young Person's Guarantee which was launched by Scottish Government in November. This new initiative will make sure every young person who is at risk of unemployment has access to a job, apprenticeship, education or training opportunity. 

We have made some changes to the endorsement page of MySSSC to make sure the information provided on applications is as accurate as possible.

It’s important you tell us about any changes to your SSSC registration details as soon as they happen, whether it’s changing job, address, contact information or your name.

We’ve developed a new app, MyLearning, to help you record and reflect on the learning you do every day. It’s free and you can use it to record your continuous professional learning (CPL).
