Local businesses have been urged to participate in Scottish Careers Week.
From November 10 to 14, various activities and events will take place across Ayrshire as part of the campaign, led by Skills Development Scotland (SDS).
Scottish Careers Week aims to showcase the country's diverse industries, career paths, and opportunities, as well as the support available to help individuals achieve their potential.
Higher and Further Education Minister Ben Macpherson said: "Scottish Careers Week helps to showcase the range of industries that there are in Scotland, along with the training and support available to enable individuals of all ages to achieve their career goals and potential."
Employers are encouraged to host events, engage in partnership activities, or offer support through Marketplace.
Developing the Young Workforce (DYW), the national organisation that connects employers with education, will also support the campaign.
Elma Murray CBE, vice-chair of the DYW Employers Forum, said: "Scottish Careers Week is a fantastic platform that supports our work, and a chance to deliver more inspirational activities with partners and businesses to help young people prepare for the world of work."
SDS works with partners to offer an all-age careers service, with professionally qualified careers advisers in every state school in Scotland.
Employers can volunteer their support through Marketplace by visiting a dedicated page on the SDS website.
