CONSTRUCTION & THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT
The UK construction industry is thriving, creating a wide range of opportunities for skilled tradespeople, whether working as employees or subcontractors. Beyond house building, careers can be found in infrastructure, retail, civil engineering and construction management. Preston College has strong partnerships with local employers, helping students progress into a variety of Apprenticeships and rewarding careers across the construction sector. Students benefit from learning in industry-standard, purpose-built workshops dedicated to joinery, bricklaying, plastering, plumbing, electrical installation, painting and decorating, and wall and floor tiling. These specialist facilities provide hands-on experience in realistic working environments, helping students develop the practical skills and confidence employers are looking for.
