The project will pilot a Level 3 course developed through a year-long delivery programme. It will include a joint collaboration between the FMB, the National Trust, and Edwards Hart Consulting.
The objective is to increase the level of knowledge and understanding on how to apply energy efficient improvements to traditional and older buildings and building methods. These buildings represent more than 25% of the UK's building stock, amongst the mainstream general building sector.
After the project, the SQA L3 Award will be available to industry from the SQA website.
- Pilot to 120 employees from 50 firms
- Develop a new SQA L3 Award for SME builders carrying refurbishment works on older buildings
