No Wrong Path Campaign Launched

13/7/2020

 
Picture
​The 'No Wrong Path' campaign was started by Developing the Young Workforce (DYW) Glasgow in 2017.  The campaign runs on the day the Scottish exam results are released and aims to highlight that many people in interesting jobs didn't necessarily take a straight, obvious or traditional path to get there.

​Along with our DYW colleagues across Scotland, we will once again be taking part in the No Wrong Path campaign, which this year will be on Tuesday 4 August 2020.
 
This year has been unique due to the disruption to education and the subsequent impact on final examinations.  That’s why it is important now, more than ever, to connect with school leavers who may not have received the results they expected, and those leaving College and University who now face an uncertain and different job market.
 
We would like to invite anyone from around Orkney (or Orcadians living further afield) to take part.  Local businesses can get their staff involved and get them to tell the story of their career journey.  All you have to do is:

  1. Post a photo or video of yourself on social media holding a sign telling us what you did when you left school and where you are now.
  2. Remember to include the hashtag #nowrongpath and tag us (@OrkneyDYW) in it so we can share it with our followers.
 
Below you will find a copy of the template you can use for your social media posts.
 
You can also find more information at www.nowrongpath.scot
