In episode #2 of Construction Talk, Nicola and Peter talk about going “beyond the imaginable” to show that construction is an aspirational place to learn and work. Nicola just opened the UK’s first industry-led education centre - AccXel - a £3m facility established to address construction's severe skills shortage.

In episode #1 of Construction Talk, Alasdair and Peter talk about how our industry came together to tackle the skills shortage. We overcame the COVID fallout better than most sectors and there is a real belief that we can do the same now – especially with the CLC Skills Plan to guide us.
