This product can also be used as a catalyst to achieve cultural change. This will be achieved through the development of FIR training resources, upskilling of FIR ambassadors, managing a network of training and delivery workshops, building a sustainable funding model which will support the continuation of this project when the funding period ends.

Funding will be used to set up a new assessment centre where assessors for  plant will be trained. 

A key outcome of the project will be to strengthen the assessment infrastructure across GB in relation to plant.

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.

The project will develop, support and create a competent managerial workforce within the shop-fitting and interior contracting sector and to promote the lifelong learning ethos within each company.

Through developing the workforce, we will also demonstrate that roles within the industry are more than mere jobs; a career in construction is just that, a real career with development options and an exciting opportunity to join and grow in a world class industry.
