Twenty successful museum applicants have been announced for Museums Galleries Scotland's Intern Programme for 2013/14.
The programme is aimed at graduates from a range of disciplines and backgrounds as a paid alternative to postgraduate study and a route of entry for employment in museums.
MGS provides support for the host museums, monitors and evaluates programmes and identifies opportunities for skills sharing.
Recruitment of 20 interns will begin this month with placements to begin in September running through to August next year.
MGS chief executive, Joanne Orr, said: "We developed our Interns Programme to secure a sustainable future for skills sharing within the sector.
"The programme's success can quite simply be put down to the fact that it meets both the sectors' and the interns' needs."
In 2011 the programme attracted 3,200 hopeful applicants.
