World Youth Skills Day, held this year on 15 July, is an opportunity to celebrate the future of our industry and others, and look at new ways we can upskill young people across the country to help them forge exciting careers. Following the Government’s announcement of more funding for firms taking on apprentices, it is now more important than ever that young people are fully aware of their options.
Hear from some of our apprentices and trainees below who are debunking common myths about apprenticeships in construction and their thoughts on how to encourage more people to consider a career in the built environment.
