Programmes and Opportunities
Help shape the future construction workforce by sharing your industry knowledge with local colleges.
The FE Teacher Industry Exchange (TIE) programme gives construction tutors the opportunity to spend time within your business, developing their understanding of current industry practices, technologies and skills needs. This helps ensure students are learning the knowledge and skills employers need both now and in the future.
The programme is designed to strengthen links between construction employers and further education providers, creating benefits for businesses, tutors and learners alike.
Host a construction student and help develop the next generation of talent.
Industry Placements give students valuable workplace experience while helping employers build links with future recruits. By offering a placement, you can introduce young people to your business, develop their understanding of the industry and help them build the skills and confidence needed for a successful career in construction.
For many employers, placements are an opportunity to identify future apprentices and employees while promoting careers within their organisation.
