Public Sector Organisations

The shortage of jobs and training is a major issue for communities today.

You have the power to make a difference.

We have developed an innovative way for public sector organisations to create construction apprenticeships and training placements.

If you’re a planning authority or you ever procure capital works, you have the tools at your disposal to kick-start the careers of local people. And most surprisingly, no major  expenditure is required, just the right processes and procedures.

There are are two different avenues you can take:

1. Harness the planning system

2. Enhance public procurement

“Daventry District Council supports WNDC's Construction Futures project as it recognises the advantages of creating the opportunity to raise skill levels and job opportunities for local people - these are fundamental Council objectives. This innovative and exciting model has the potential to be deployed nationally as an example for others to follow.”
