A total of 37 practitioners were invited by Busy Bees Education and Training to attend the group's first Scottish graduate ceremony at Edinburgh's Assembly Rooms.
Graduates donned their gowns in celebration of achieving their Social Services Children and Young People SVQ 3 and SVQ 4 qualifications.
Speaking at the event, Marg Randles, who co-founded Busy Bees nearly 40 years ago, said, ‘It is fantastic to recognise the achievements of all our graduates, especially in such challenging circumstances over the last two years.’
