Course Overview
New College Durham is introducing a bootcamp in modular and timber frame construction, responding directly to regional employer feedback and the increasing demand for sustainable building practices both locally and nationally. The construction industry is a crucial part of the regional economy, and it is essential that businesses and their employees remain current with the latest techniques and technologies. As modular and timber frame construction gains popularity, there is a growing need for specialised training to meet this demand.
This bootcamp offers significant benefits to learners, employers, and the region as a whole. Learners will receive practical, hands-on training in modern building practices, materials, and teamwork, which will enhance their employability and earning potential. The program, designed and reviewed by industry leaders, ensures that participants are equipped with skills that are recognised within the sector. For employers, the bootcamp will help bridge the skills gap by providing a pool of trained workers, leading to increased productivity, quality, and safety on construction sites. Ultimately, this initiative will contribute to a more robust and sustainable construction sector, reinforcing the region's position as a leader in sustainable construction practices.
