We are delighted to deliver our first Women in Construction Academy in partnership with East Lothian Works and Balfour Beatty.
This is our first academy designed specifically to support women entering the industry- an important step towards improving representation and creating accessible pathways into construction careers.
Over the course of the week, delegates will complete a full programme of introductory construction training, gaining essential health & safety knowledge, practical skills, and the confidence to take their next steps. The programme included key qualifications such as Manual Handling, Working at Height, Fire Awareness and Abrasive Wheels, alongside support for their CSCS preperation.
A huge well done to everyone who is taking part- we're incredibly proud to play a role in opening doors for more women joining the industry.
Thank you to East Lothian Council and Balfour Beatty for their collaboration and commitment throughout the programme. We look forward to delivering more women-focused academies in the future.
