As part of the government’s plans to get Britain building again, NHBC launches the first 12 new multi-skills training hubs, backed by its \u00a3100 million investment to tackle UK house-building skills shortage<\/h2>\n

The new national network of NHBC Multi-Skills Training Hubs will address the house-building industry\u2019s growing skills shortage<\/a> by producing an additional 3,000 skilled and site-ready tradespeople faster each year.<\/p>\n

As the UK\u2019s leading independent provider of warranty and insurance for new-build homes, NHBC is committed to closing the skills gap in the house-building industry with the launch of its new training hubs.<\/p>\n

Training for local housing needs<\/h3>\n

These expert facilities will initially provide training in areas of critical demand for housebuilding, including bricklaying, groundwork and site carpentry.<\/p>\n

They are designed to stay flexible however, ready to adapt to local housing needs and changes in regulations.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Roger Morton, director of Change and Training Hubs at NHBC, commented: \u201cWe\u2019re not just training apprentices<\/a>, we\u2019re shaping the future of UK house building. With 25 years as an officer in the Royal Engineers, I\u2019m driven by navigating challenges and improving quality. NHBC\u2019s multi-skills hubs will shake up house-building training, tackling the skills shortage head-on and making a real difference to the future of the industry.”<\/p>\n

NHBC\u2019s Multi-Skills Hubs stand apart by immersing apprentices in real-site conditions from day one, fully preparing them for life on site. While traditional training routes can take up to 30 months, NHBC\u2019s fast-track approach enables apprentices to complete their training in just 14 to 18 months \u2013 nearly twice as fast as other more traditional programmes \u2013 with many graduates achieving distinctions.<\/p>\n

A boost to getting more quality homes built across the UK<\/h3>\n

Alice Clay, 19, from Patrington, Hull and a brickwork apprentice trained by NHBC, praised the initiative: \u201cThe NHBC Multi-Skills Training Hubs are going to make a real difference! It\u2019s really appealing to apprentices and builders because these hubs will be training skilled tradespeople faster than ever, giving a huge boost to getting more quality homes built across the UK.\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cI was the first woman to pass my NHBC Bricklaying apprenticeship and I achieved a distinction! I knew I wanted a practical job and within weeks of joining the NHBC training programme, I felt confident and capable on site. There\u2019s a lot to learn, but training at an NHBC hub meant I was working in real-site conditions from day one. I\u2019d learn at the hub and then regularly put my new skills and knowledge into practice out on site. The training NHBC offers is of a gold standard. It\u2019s well-respected, hands-on and fast-paced. It\u2019s exactly what the industry needs.\u201d<\/p>\n

NHBC\u2019s Multi-Skills Training Hubs will help meet industry demands for faster, more flexible and practical training to support UK house builders in meeting the government\u2019s target of 1.5 million new homes over the next five years. The initiative is especially timely, as the UK faces an urgent need for skilled workers, with estimates showing over 250,000 new construction workers will be needed by 2028 to meet industry demand.<\/p>\n

The best industry-recognised qualification<\/h3>\n

Ben Thorburn, 23, a bricklaying apprentice from Histon, Cambridgeshire, with GSQ Brickwork at the NHBC Training Hub in Cambridge, shared: \u201cNHBC\u2019s new multi-skills hubs are a fantastic initiative! They\u2019re going to transform how the UK trains its house-building workforce.\"\"<\/p>\n

“Training with NHBC means I\u2019m gaining the best industry recognised qualification quickly. It\u2019s only going to take me 15 months to complete my apprenticeship. That\u2019s half the time of other Further Education options. That\u2019s crucial when you have financial responsibilities like I do. I wouldn\u2019t have been able to afford the time otherwise.<\/p>\n

\u201cNHBC\u2019s Training Hubs also have a big appeal for the subcontractor I work for because I\u2019m on site faster and fully qualified to industry-leading standards. My company can build a team of skilled tradespeople, quickly. Alongside the support of the Apprenticeship Levy builders can get, the new hubs mean it\u2019s a win-win for everyone.<\/p>\n

\u201cLooking ahead, the housebuilding industry offers amazing career prospects. Once I qualify in January, I\u2019ll be on track to earn an average of around \u00a350,000 a year. I was discouraged from doing an apprenticeship at school and my teachers pushed me towards university as the only real option.<\/p>\n

“After my A-Levels, I realised a desk job wasn\u2019t for me. There\u2019s a misconception that bricklayers aren\u2019t academic, but that\u2019s just not true. I\u2019m proof that you can build a successful career in housebuilding through an apprenticeship and I\u2019m aiming to move into a management role down the line.\u201d<\/p>\n

A rewarding career path in house building<\/h3>\n

With funding support from the Apprenticeship Levy and other grants, NHBC\u2019s apprenticeships are an attractive option for builders and contractors of all sizes looking to develop and grow a skilled workforce, and individuals considering a rewarding career path in house building.<\/p>\n

\"\"Tegan Pryor, 22 from Shefford in Bedfordshire and an apprentice at the NHBC Training Hub in Cambridge said she struggled to find a bricklaying apprenticeship: \u201cWe need more houses, but we also need more small and medium-sized builders to take on apprentices.<\/p>\n

“I was really surprised by how difficult it was to secure an apprenticeship, as there simply weren\u2019t enough opportunities in the house-building industry and competition was fierce for the few available spots.<\/p>\n

“Eventually, I secured an apprenticeship with Redrow and with NHBC\u2019s training, I\u2019ll qualify in just 15 months. Soon I\u2019ll be out on site earning a great wage and knowing exactly what to expect as I\u2019ve been trained in real site conditions by NHBC\u2019s expert trainers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know the new multi-skills training hubs will make a big difference in local communities. I\u2019d encourage builders and contractors to invest in the future by taking on apprentices like me. Together, we can grow a skilled workforce that will help close the industry\u2019s skills gap and deliver the quality homes we need.\u201d<\/p>\n

NHBC is currently evaluating prospective locations for its new Multi-Skills Training Hubs across the UK, with plans for its first hub to launch in early 2025 and 11 more to follow at pace. For more information, visit Apprenticeships | NHBC.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
