Training placements

We are creating at least 225 on-site training placements offered to local residents who are a school or college leaver, or unemployed. As part of the short-term training placement, trainees will learn essential skills on a live construction project, complete training courses and work towards obtaining a Construction Skills Certificate Scheme (CSCS) card.

How do I apply for a training placement?

Delivery of the training placements will resume in mid autumn 2022. If you are interested and would like to register your interest to be an NLHPP trainee, please contact NLHPP@NLWA.gov.uk with the following information:
