  • Constructing the Built Environment Level 1/2:  Gives the learner a broad introduction to the different trades involved in the construction industry

  • Skills Tasters:  We deliver a taster programme which enables learners to sample a number of skill areas to help them decide a career pathway.  Tasters can be adapted to suit the requirements of the school or organisation.
