ConstructionSkills is the Sector Skills Council for the construction industry. As a partnership between CITB-ConstructionSkills, CIC and CITB Northern Ireland, we are UK-wide and represent the whole industry from professional consultancies to major contractors and SMEs
Established as an SSC in 2003, ConstructionSkills is working to deliver a safe, professional and fully qualified construction workforce. We are responsible for raising employer engagement in training, implementing industry-led skills solutions, securing appropriate funding, producing labour market data, and developing standards and qualifications that meet employer needs.
ConstructionSkills is a well run and high performing Sector Skills Council, supporting a sector which is central to the UK economy, generating over 8% of GDP and a turnover of more than £210bn a year. We are helping construction employers during the downturn and working to maintain skills so the industry can respond when the upturn begins.
ConstructionSkills is delighted to sponsor the Building Awards.
