Doncaster Skills Academy, racing towards completion

-

We are thrilled to announce that Doncaster Skills Academy will be operational from the 20th February onwards! Although we will be running at reduced capacity, while delivering our highly popular and entirely free ITC (Introduction to Construction with CSCS card) courses, we anticipate that our newest academy will be fully operational towards the end of March!


Progress is coming along nicely. Rooms are beginning to form, the mezzanine staircase is in, the upper floor laid, and the facilities are becoming fully functional. 







Alongside our ITC course, this fantastic academy will eventually be delivering all four Skills Bootcamps in construction trades (bricklaying/plastering/painting & decorating/joinery/ carpentry), which is a first for our academies. 

It's been fantastic to watch its former shell form into a wonderful space for people to learn, create, communicate, and engage, and we're excited to see it fully completed not too long down the line!

Interested in taking one of our short but dedicated construction courses? Then contact our friendly and knowledgeable Sales and Engagement Coordinator, Victoria Evans, on 07432207910 or via email at
victoria.evans@skillspeoplegroup.com to discover how you can start your new career in construction!
