Construction Qualification Strategy

people looking at plans

Giving you the workforce you need

  • Are you fed up with people having qualifications that don’t really help their day-to-day work?
  • Do you keep supervising team members because they don’t have the proper skills?
  • Do you feel the system isn't preparing people to work in the industry?

ConstructionSkills has taken the opportunity of the UK Sector Qualification Reform Programme to work with the nations’ qualification regulators, awarding organisations and manufacturers to put together a new framework for the future structure of standards and qualifications based on construction industry feedback.

What you need

The Construction Qualification Strategy (March 2007) includes your valuable feedback and industry recommendations for twenty strategy strands to support the standards and qualification infrastructure.

How are we taking the Construction Qualification Strategy forward?

Action plans have been drawn up to identify the priority actions and outcomes which partners have agreed to complete during July 2009 and June 2011. This is to support the standards and qualification infrastructure in the UK and specific nation(s).

The plans are overseen by ConstructionSkills’ respective home nation and UK standards and qualifications committees to reflect the needs of the various industry sectors, covering the 20 strategy strands.
