Construction Courses

Kensington and Chelsea College are building the workforce of tomorrow and for the 21st Century, with the recent launch of our newly built Transition Skills Centre based in Park Royal West London.

The primary goal of the centre is to support learners who are keen to develop and obtain skills to enter the Construction industry.

The vision and purpose of the Kensington and Chelsea Transition Centre intends to address the LSC’s key priorities to deliver better skills, better jobs, better lives.

The Transition Skills Centre has been developed to cater for a diverse range of learners including adults and 14-19 year olds. It aims to make a difference to the lives of some of the most disadvantaged people within London by building their vocational, personal and social development skills to assist them in sourcing sustainable employment opportunities.

The Centre offers qualifications aimed at total beginners – Construction ‘Multiskills’ for example is an excellent introduction to common DIY tasks covering introductory skills in:

Upon completing Construction ‘Multiskills’ most learners choose to specialise in one of the key trades at Foundation Construction Award Level 1.

Additional support for learners in Maths, English and ICT is also available as is in-house employability skills support to ensure the learner has access to a wide range of vacancies with employers such as Laing’s, Wate’s, Corillion and Bovis.

Kensington and Chelsea College are recruiting now to build a workforce which meets the skills shortages in the construction industry in the UK.
