Joint Utilities Entry Level Training Programme
CITB NI, in partnership with the Department for the Economy (DfE), NIE Networks, and Kier, has successfully completed the inaugural Joint Utilities Entry Level Training Programme. This pioneering initiative offered specialised training for participants in the utilities sector, crucial for developing the workforce needed for a net zero economy.
Designed to support subcontractors who provide asset installation services for the utility sector the programme ensured they were equipped with competent and skilled personnel. Over the course of 22 weeks, participants received both practical and theoretical training, including 80 days on-site and 30 days off-site.
To gain a better understanding of the programme and its components, watch our overview video.
Phase 2 of the programme will reopen for new applications in the Autumn and will be promoted through partner websites and social media channels
Construction Simulated Site - coming soon
(CITB NI) has announced the development of a brand new, free training facility at their Nutts Corner location called
Simulated Construction Site. The facility will support with real-life training as well as support the industry's needs for a skilled and competent workforce through pre apprenticeship programmes, apprenticeships, FE / HE construction courses and upskilling of the existing workforce.
Work has already commenced on the site, with materials kindly provided by Mineral Products Association NI (MPANI). The
Simulated Construction Site will provide a facility that will encourage the practical application of retrofit applications to enable the NI Construction industry to meet the government targets for carbon neutral buildings.
Delivery of practical skills in previous pre-employment and apprenticeship schemes have taken place within an internal workshop or building, the
Simulated Construction Site will enable a more realistic environment which will prepare individuals for work in the real world of construction.
This free of charge facility is the ideal training location for trainers and employers to host their own training and inhouse trainers for construction employers. In the future, CITB NI hope to develop the location for site visits and potential job sampling for schools/careers.
