Construction and the Built Environment

Boost your career longevity with a solid foundation

Buildings are a fundamental part of life, and the construction sector is set to be a key economic driver now and in the future.

The industry has a crucial role as we think about environmental concerns such as reducing carbon footprint, and our courses can put you at the forefront of leading this innovative future. You’ll build a range of technical and managerial construction expertise and up-to-date knowledge of legislation and regulations. We’ll also prepare you to lead multidisciplinary teams and confidently deliver in complex environments. Whatever your interest, we have the opportunities for you to start your career in this sector.

Construction Management - Pearson BTEC HNC

The Level 4 units lay the foundation of learning by providing a broad introduction to construction management functions. This develops and strengthens core skills while preparing students for specialist subjects at Level 5 or to enter employment with the qualities necessary for job roles that require some personal responsibility. Students will gain a wide range of construction knowledge linked to practical skills gained through research, independent study, directed study and workplace scenarios. Students are involved in vocational activities that help them to develop behaviours (the attitudes and approaches required for a competence) and transferable skills. Transferable skills are those such as communication, teamwork, research and analysis, which are highly valued in higher education and in the workplace. By the end of Level 4, students will have sound knowledge of the basic construction concepts. They will be competent in a range of subject-specific skills as well as in general skills and qualities relevant to key areas of construction. It is designed to allow progression to qualifications offered by many professional bodies, such as CIOB CABE. -Apply now click here -For further information, please email This email address is being protected from spambots.
