This guide is intended for academics in Scotland who are new to working with policy professionals but are keen to do so. We hope that it helps you get started by taking a stroll through the world of policy at your own pace.

We have tried to provide information that we hope is useful in as concise as accessible manner as possible. Hopefully, we got that right most of the time but we are very keen to hear about what we’ve missed, what else you would find helpful and where we’ve got things wrong. It would also be lovely to hear about what we’ve got right!
