A major new construction skills project has got underway in Sheffield, giving local people the opportunity to gain on-site skills, certifications and secure sustainable employment.
Opportunity Sheffield is leading a consortium of public and private sector organisations on ‘The Building Block’ training scheme, supported by CITB’s Construction Skills Fund.
The project has soft-launched in January ahead of a full rollout in March 2019, with the first group of learners undertaking work experience on-site having completed two-weeks of study.
Referrals are being sought for individuals who would like an opportunity to develop a construction industry career, and also for employers who can provide work experience or would like access to a pool of CSCS-certified talent.
Further details on the scheme (for prospective candidates) can be found below:
