18/06/2018
Twenty on-site hubs to train more people to help deliver 300,000 new homes a year by the mid-2020s will be funded through this new programme.
Skills Minister, Anne Milton, has announced details of a new £22 million fund, established to help tackle the construction skills shortage in England. With thousands of new construction jobs expected to be created over the next five years, the Construction Skills Fund will bring training to construction sites - allowing learners to apply their knowledge in a real-world environment.
