Wider Achievement means wider opportunities

SQA Awards recognise wider achievement and the development of skills, in order to help learners to succeed in a modern working environment.

Life and work skills come from a wide range of activities such as sports, mentoring, voluntary work or fundraising, whether they take place at school, college or elsewhere.
