The project will develop targeted, innovative, quality-assured training that delivers standardised skills and knowledge for off-site manufacturing and assembly in construction.  It will use a range of blended learning solutions that draw from and build upon existing content.

Resources will be made freely available on the Supply Chain Sustainability School (SCSS) platform along with the skills diagnostic tool and trainer upskilling resources, underpinned by SCSS learner management systems. 

After the project MTC will achieve scalability of the developed materials through the networks within partners National Open College Network (NOCN) and Supply Chain School  NOCN will disseminate through its network of 600 providers, quality assure the materials and commit to maintaining them for at least two years after the project. Industry training materials on offsite will be freely available through the Supply Chain School website.

The UK’s nuclear renaissance, commencing with the nuclear new build at Hinkley Point C, presents skills and competency challenges.

The ONR-regulated construction environment demands higher quality, bespoke training solutions for the supply chain. However, the cost of consultative and collaborative engagement with specialists cannot be met from current skills funding.

The client has invested significant capital to support development and delivery, but revenue support is needed to achieve sustainability. Revenue funding will add further value by driving down future regulated build costs..

The project will identify and upskill onsite assessors in the small and medium-sized enterprise community. This will support the development of assessment infrastructure for the demolition, plant and plastering industries across Great Britain.

This project will increase the availability and quality of on-site assessment in the following areas:

• Passive Fire Protection
• Interior Systems, including: Dry Lining Boarding/Fixing/Finishing, Ceiling Fixing, Modular Demountable Partitioning

This project is focused on training new assessors in Passive Fire and Finishes and Interiors

This project will allow assessors to train and develop in the areas of lifting operations, construction plant and demolition plant.
King Lifting will lead the project to train industry experts to become Vocational Qualification assessors or quality assurers, as well as CPCS testers. This is to create greater access to training/testing and assessment for the lifting, construction plant and demolition plant sectors.

Seymour Civil Engineering Contractors Limited are currently establishing a Civils Training Academy where General Construction Apprenticeships and Study programmes will be delivered in partnership with Hartlepool College of Further Education.
