Co-created with industry experts and leading house builders, our Construction Site Supervisor apprenticeship provides you with the knowledge to manage staff and subcontractors, supervise all aspects of the build, and ensure homes are ready to move into.
The course is unrestricted by traditional term times, allowing you to study for a formal qualification alongside your employment. There are ten modules delivered virtually by an NHBC training professional over 62 weeks, allowing you to learn at any location within the UK.
The course content focuses on new builds and meets the requirements of apprenticeship standard ST0048. At the end of this apprenticeship, you’ll have an industry-recognised Level 4 qualification in site supervision and relevant CSCS card, ready to hit the ground running.
