Construction taster

These two tasters, Construction and Construction Small Business Management are intended for people who wish to explore the possibility of pursuing a career in the construction or associated industries or the possibility of running their own construction business.

Information sheets for prospective learners and suggested outlines for learning centre staff are available below.

A series of worksheets with separate answer sheets have been developed to support the Concepts of Construction course in Skillnet. Learning centre staff may wish to make use of existing materials they have for basic book keeping and financial record keeping exercises to support those learners interested in Small Business Management.

Details of how learners can register for tasters are provided in the taster guide.
