The flagship CITB Skills and Training Fund is a testament to CITB’s dedication to advancing the construction workforce. Targeting micro, small, and medium-sized construction companies with up to 250 employees, this fund provides substantial financial support of up to £25,000. The fund is specifically earmarked for training initiatives in leadership and management, and other critical construction areas. By encouraging companies to invest in their employees’ professional development, CITB enables them to enhance efficiencies, diversify revenue streams, and thrive in a competitive industry. The Skills and Training Fund positions construction businesses to embrace future challenges with a highly motivated, skilled, and adaptable workforce.

Recognising the importance of short but impactful training programs, CITB offers Short Course Grants to support the achievement of approved short qualifications in core construction skills. These short courses typically take less than a year to complete and cater to essential skills required across the industry. Qualifications covered include CITB Health & Safety Awareness, SSSTS, SMSTS, Temporary Work Co-Ordinator and more. By providing financial assistance for such training, CITB empowers employers to foster a safety-conscious and proficient workforce, ensuring consistent and high-quality project outcomes.
