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 the uptake of heritage training within Wales, increasing the number of qualifications delivered and increasing awareness of the heritage sector within the construction industry.

Funding will be used to set up a new assessment centre where assessors for asbestos control and abatement will be trained. A key outcome of the project will be to strengthen the assessment infrastructure across GB in relation to asbestos control and abatement.

Funding will be used to set up a new assessment centre where assessors for brickwork will be trained. A key outcome of the project will be to strengthen the assessment infrastructure across GB in relation to brickwork.

The project will build networks of employers in the Home Building supply chain and promote collaboration between home builders, sub-contractors and the supply chain.

It will identify training needs of those that are less engaged in training, and influence the dis-engaged to increase their level of training and therefore increasing their engagement with CITB.

Having identified training needs, a series of short-duration off-job training interventions will be delivered to meet the supply chain needs.

The project will develop and pilot an e-learning Lean Development Pathway which will include a self-assessment, a number of videos and an online portfolio function. 20 organisations will set up cohorts whose objective is to solve problems in the workplace. The project will include “train the trainer” workshops and mentoring. The Supply Chain School portal will host and promote developed content.

The project will develop a programme to accredit organisations in the British Standards Institution ISO18404 for Lean Construction. 

One organisation will receive the accreditation and a best practice case study will be developed to support other employers through the process.

After the project, one employer will become accredited in the ISO Lean Construction standard. Another will have undertaken training so they have the ability to do so. The guidance and training materials used to achieve this will be made available to industry so that other employers can go on the same journey and achieve accreditation.

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.
