GTG Training has announced that it will be delivering construction courses from its state-of-the-art training centre in Glasgow.
This move comes in response to the growing demand in the industry to meet workforce needs.
The Glasgow training centre will provide high-quality education and hands-on experience for individuals pursuing careers in construction. With the industry’s recent growth, such training initiatives are vital for ensuring there is a well-equipped workforce to handle future challenges.
Construction growth focusses on private housing, infrastructure and repair and maintenance. The new courses offered at GTG will cover a wide range of skills and disciplines – including Lifting Operations, Plant Operator, Site Safety Plus, Working at Height, Vocational Qualifications and Construction Health and Safety.
The courses are aimed at those who are looking to gain employment in the construction industry or who want to upskill or refresh their current training. Whether it’s working with heavy machinery, working at height or even refreshing health and safety knowledge, there’s a large selection of construction courses to choose from.
The team at Glasgow training centre recently delivered the first NPORS Appointed Person course – a five-day course that teaches delegates to safely and effectively plan lifts, as well as the legislation and regulatory requirements for being an ‘appointed person’ for planning lifts.
While working with an experienced team of instructors at their industry-leading facilities, delegates can be safe in the knowledge that they are getting the best learning experience, as GTG Training has been accredited by NPORS and are now a CPCS test centre in partnership with CAT Solutions, two leading awarding bodies in the construction industry.
Pauline Bryan, GTG Operations Manager, said: “The addition of construction courses significantly enhances our training offering and is just the beginning of our commitment to the industry. We are also planning to expand our training facilities to accommodate more hands-on, practical courses, ensuring that our students are well-prepared for the demands of the sector.”
From Plant Operator and Construction Health and Safety to Senior Management qualifications, GTG has a range of courses and qualifications available to suit individual needs in their training centres in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Wolverhampton.
With years of practical experience and an in-depth knowledge of industry standards, GTG’s expert trainers are dedicated to providing a high standard of practical, hands-on training and theoretical learning, as well as on-site assessment.
