Foundation Apprenticeship

Following a recommendation by the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), Safety Scotland are delighted to now be working in partnership with Developing the Young Workforce (DYW) and Aberdeenshire Council on the delivery of a Foundation Apprenticeship in Construction at Alford, Portlethen and Turriff academy’s.

Foundation Apprenticeships provide a work-based learning opportunity, aiming to ensure that pupils build the skills, experience, and knowledge they need to achieve their goals, dreams, and aspirations. 

Construction can only be sustained by replenishing the workforce with young people, who are creative and innovative, pushing the boundaries to help our industry grow and we hope that the experience provided to our students will help towards inspiring them to make construction their career of choice, sustaining the industry for generations to come.
