Onsite Experience hubs - Wales
Between 2021 and 2025 we aim to increase the construction talent pool in Wales through Onsite Experience hubs, creating a talent pipeline to meet the needs of local construction employers and enabling construction career opportunities for people from local communities. £4m of funding has been approved to enable over 2,100 people to become employment and site-ready, and at least 1,200 people, many in remote communities, to secure sustained employment.
What Onsite Experience hubs deliver for the construction industry
Onsite Experience hubs are designed to provide a one-stop recruitment solution for construction employers. By linking together employers, training providers, local authorities, community agencies and other partners, hubs enable the development of employment and site-ready people from local communities. These well-suited candidates can then be linked to employers’ vacancies, and because they have gained some initial experience on construction sites, often with the recruiting employer, and have the necessary introductory training and health & safety credentials, they can be productive immediately.
Contact your local Onsite Experience hub
Whether you are an employer seeking site-ready candidates to fill your vacancies, or an individual looking for a career in construction, your local CITB Onsite Experience hub can provide you with support and advice.
