Come along to CITB roadshows this Spring

Construction employers are being invited to attend the latest roadshows to shape how CITB serves industry and meets employers' training priorities.

So far more than 900 people have registered to attend one of the 27 events taking place all over the country during March, April and May. 

Based on early registration surveys, employers have chosen the topics most important to them and which will feature on every roadshow agenda.

These include:

• Grants and funding available for your business
• Apprenticeships
• CITB Levy 2021-23
• CITB update
• The Training Directory and Training Register

Feedback from the roadshows that took place last autumn informed the structure of the events, so there will more time to speak to CITB representatives and other local employers.

Mark Noonan, CITB Industry Relations Director, said: “The roadshows are an important way for employers to discuss their skills needs and local training issues with us and among each other. I would strongly urge attendance, as the training market must deliver for industry at this critical time.”

The dates and venues are as follows: 

• 18 March – London
