CITB is working in collaboration with NHBC to develop new Homebuilding Access Training Standards as part of the wider Homebuilding Access Scheme. This joint initiative, involving CITB, the UK Government, and the National House Building Council, aims to address the critical need for skilled workers to support the construction of 1.5 million new homes by 2029.
These new standards, focused initially on drylining, will be delivered as Short Duration Standards. They are being shaped in direct consultation with industry stakeholders to ensure training is practical, relevant, and aligned with recognised standards.
FIS is encouraging members to get involved and support this important work. If you’re interested in contributing to the development of these standards, please contact Beena Nana.
