SPARK together with Master Builders ACT and our partners are proud to launch this innovative training program to encourage more women to consider a career in the civil construction industry.
Civil construction is an exciting part of the sector with interesting
roles across the planning, design and creation of major infrastructure projects. This program will provide participants with specialised accredited training and employment pathways.
Please note, those individuals who wish to be considered for this program MUST successfully complete a functional capacity assessment (which includes drug and alcohol testing) before being offered a place on the program.
Specifically targeting women from the ACT, this program will:
· Provide participants with seven core units of competency and a pathway into a qualification in civil construction
· Provide participants with 11084NAT – Asbestos Awareness, CPCWHS1001 – Prepare to Work Safely in the Construction Industry – White Card and 10830NAT Course in Crystalline Silica Exposure Prevention
· Provide a range of interesting workshops including resilience, mental health and wellbeing, time management and more
· Provide a four-week work placement within the civil sector with one of our partner contractors and potential employment pathways for successful program graduates
Commencing Monday 1 May 2023, this 9 week program will run five days per week and be a combination of theory, practical hands-on learning and industry work placement.
The information session will provide individuals with advice on eligibility criteria, program content and the commitment that is required to be selected as a participant on this program.
