The construction firm claims the new facility is the first in the UK.
The new facility is part-funded by the Local Skills Improvement Fund (LSIF), and aims to provide people with the technical and digital skills required to assemble construction and engineering solutions that have been manufactured offsite — the facility will offer a Level 2 Apprenticeship in Construction Assembly installation.
