Our training courses, funded by the Department for Education (DfE) under the Skills for Life initiative through the Skills Group People, aims to help adults gain essential sector-specific skills.

The Skills People Group, a leading provider of construction-related qualifications, has supported over 8,000 learners in the East Midlands and South Yorkshire. Through fully funded courses and training.

Through this partnership, we will be offering a series of courses certified by CPCS and NPORS, including Ride-on Roller, Forward Tipping Dumpers, Telehandler Slinger Signaller and more.

These courses are delivered through face-to-face training sessions at our centre, with participants required to attend all sessions to complete the course
