CIOB CEO Caroline Gumble learned how local businesses are narrowing the skills gap and shining a light on the diversity and inclusion agenda on a visit to CIOB training partner the Forshaw Group’s INS-Pire Academy in Knowsley.
In collaboration with more than 50 local businesses, the Knowsley Apprenticeship Partnership and the Forshaw Group’s INS-Pire Academy have been instrumental in providing over 100 apprenticeship roles across Knowsley. Roles include opportunities in plumbing, plastering, painting, joinery, electrician work and administration.
The day included presentations, activities and a tour of Kier’s £38m, Shakespeare North Playhouse in Prescot. These were followed by the inaugural Knowsley Chamber of Commerce Construction Forum meeting.
