If you are a CITB Registered business, contractor, or sub-contractor your local CITB advisor via the new Local Employer Networks scheme can help you access a 70% grant to train, reskill and upskill your workforce in low energy and Net Zero construction practices.
The new Employers Networks have been set up to make it easier for you to access training and funding. The training can be in anything that supports construction employers.

Coaction Training CIC offers four industry leading training courses that meet CITB training criteria and are delivered by experienced and practising professionals working at the forefront of Net Zero, energy efficient buildings.
Completing Coaction training will provide you with a working knowledge of the Passivhaus and EnerPHit standards plus Net Zero and building physics skills, building your confidence to deliver quality low energy, resource efficient, healthy buildings across all typologies, in both newbuild and retrofit.

If you are new to low energy, Net Zero and Passivhaus construction we suggest that you start with the Bitesize Passivhaus course and progress on to Tradesperson, Retrofit Delivery and then the Practical session. If you already have experience Bitesize can act as a refresher but is not a requirement to participate in the Tradesperson or Retrofit courses. Contact us for further advice.
To access this funding opportunity, contact your local CITB ADVISOR to discuss your training requirements. You will need to name Coaction Training CIC as your preferred training provider along with the training course title(s), date(s) and the names of your employees.
