This project is the development of a training and accreditation scheme for ecological clerks of works on construction sites (Site Ecologists). Clients, contractors and the ecology profession will work collaboratively to agree the required competencies and set standards. A comprehensive training and assessment programme leading to accredited status will enable a sustainable supply of confident and well-trained ecological clerks of works able to meet the increasing supply needs of the construction industry.

The programme will create a publically shared rubric built on VINCI best practices for the industry to use to upskill their job families in BIM. This is in response to the ambitious 2025 Construction Strategy which aims to achieve 33% reductions in costs and a 50% increase in efficiency through full BIM integration.

After the project, 14 short-duration e-learning modules will be freely available to use by industry. BIM ambassadors will be upskilled to champion the use of BIM in construction roles and promote the modules. A BIM framework will be developed that will go on to inform CITB activity in identifying and standardising digital competencies.

The project will provide training opportunities to construction employers for Civil Engineering Operatives and Engineers.  

The framework will be delivered to individuals who will also be undertaking the NVQ Level 2 diploma in construction operation (out of project scope). The key element is to streamline the Civils offer providing operatives with a comprehensive range of skills which have been identified by industry.

After the project, the framework will be available for industry to use to help deliver skills that employers have said civil engineering operatives need, in addition to the NVQ L2 Diploma.

The project will increase productivity by reducing the errors and defects that cause rework. Modules and e-learning will be developed and piloted that will deliver collaborative planning processes at design interface of projects. To make the project scalable, set of train the trainer resources will be produced.

Research will identify and recommend ways of measuring the rate errors and defects. This will help to set out an industry baseline to measure any future impact on productivity.

After the project, the course modules and teaching resources will be made freely available to industry and be eligible for short-duration grant funding. Guidance on how to implement the training with their partner modules for the other two 'Get it right' projects to deliver change on a project or in an organisation. Guidance will explain how to deliver training, when and with which roles.

The project will increase productivity by reducing the errors and defects that cause rework. A new L5 qualification will be developed and rolled out on Energy Efficiency in Retrofit Project Management. This will help to set out an industry baseline to measure any future impact on productivity.

After the project, the qualification will be published online and available either as a face to face module or by means of e-learning.

The project will increase productivity by reducing the errors and defects that cause rework. Modules and e-learning will be developed and piloted that will deliver a ‘right first time’ culture at leadership level of organisations. To make the project scalable, set of train the trainer resources will be produced.

The project will deliver the CITB's Achieving Behavioural Change (ABC) programme. This essential programme:

• covers legal duties of employers and employees
• defines hazards, risks and control measures
• lists possible causes of accidents
• helps employees understand the link between attitude and behaviour, the costs of poor safety performance, the benefits of good safety performance and how to put ABC into practice.

After the end of the project, workers in the Manchester airport Group Estate will have achieved the training and will have the skill-sets to improve safety in the working environment.

The project will develop a network of Centres of Excellence across the UK to support training in Joinery, Shop-fitting and Interior Contracting  using new apprenticeship standards as the bedrock Using this network  to ensure all units can be offered and ensuring curriculums are up to date and standardised by providing ‘bolt-on’ modules.

After the project more wood workers will have the skills to operate CNC machinery, and the capacity for further people to upskill will be increased through the network of centres of excellence.

The project will pilot and test a programme of training which will instil the latest technical and practical skills in the ground working sector, an area which is increasingly focussing on environmental and technical concerns. It will develop and deliver a L2 / L3 pilot Master Ground Working training programme that incorporates and expands on core components of Level 2 Programme in Civils Framework & L3 Machinery Maintenance with essential additional courses and qualifications needed for an up to date Ground worker role.
