Partnerships
Our goal is to create long-term relationships between secondary schools, colleges and training providers in our place-based construction unit. Through these long-term relationships we facilitate construction with built environment led sessions and activities, supported by industry skilled trainers.
The sessions and activities can include an introduction to industry, curriculum-based lessons, work experience opportunities and support for applying for apprenticeships or further education.
