With the help of the Cambridge Consortium, CITB, local Government and independent investment and support we will open a facility in Cambridge or the surrounding area to be the beacon for the local construction industry. Focussing on 'the now' and getting local people into construction, through to supporting career progression and the future of construction under one roof.

At the Construction Academy, we will be delivering gateway qualifications which inspire and promote the opportunities in Construction and signposting further opportunities to take the Pathway appropriate for them. Alongside these people hoping to enter the industry, CPD, accreditation and refresher training as well as Higher Education will all be taking place, reiterating in a real space the opportunities of progression and spectrum of availability in the industry.
Working with HMP Peterborough initially, this forward thinking, collaborative and ready to go model will inspire and provide opportunities to former offenders to get into the construction industry. When entering their resettlement phase they can complete certified training that gives them extra opportunity to gain meaningful and sustainable employment when released.
