The fully funded training is available to companies looking to put their staff through a construction related Level 2 NVQ Qualification, leading to CSCS or CPCS cards for successful participants.

The training programme will focus on promoting environmentally friendly and sustainable construction processes and techniques.

Construction Skills People is now calling on local construction contractors to reach out to register their interest.

Andy Sheppard, Funding and Levy Manager at Construction Skills People, said: “Environmental considerations need to be taken very seriously on a construction site in order to minimise the impact on the local environment and to reduce waste and costs.

 “The funded training is available immediately but is limited to 200 applicants, so we are inviting local companies to register their interest soonest.”

 If you are a Gloucestershire company looking to qualify your staff through the CSCS/CPCS Card Scheme, please contact Kadie or Rebecca at Construction Skills People on 01246 589444 Ext 715 or 607.
