Building a better tomorrow
We’re an employer-led, community-focused training and apprenticeships provider.
Our mission
We’re opening the door to the next generation of construction workers, while benefiting local communities.
We utilise our centres to attract and train local people considering work in construction and up-skill those already in the sector.
More jobs for the people
Working in partnership with councils and property developers, we’re matching a site-ready workforce to local employment opportunities.

No matter what your background is, there are employers that are seeking your skills. As the industry has evolved, construction jobs and workplaces have become increasingly diverse and inclusive.

Innovative on and off-site training
Each of our centres offer innovative, on and off-site training that guarantees a quality learner experience. We're actively developing a site-ready workforce and wider talent pool for employers.

Local employment opportunities
By working in collaboration with employers, we match our training with employment opportunities. We’re benefiting local communities and laying the foundation for industry improvement.
04
Flexible learning
By listening to organisations and learners, we’ve been able to respond to the needs of employers, individuals and the communities in which they live and work. We dedicate our resources to support learning success.
