The courses we offer provide students with an excellent introduction into a career in the construction industry. Students will gain experience both practically and academically within a construction and College environment. We have courses from entry level to level 3.

We also offer construction provision to those students who have disabilities and learning difficulties and we are happy to discuss any individual requirements.
