We’re delighted to be working in partnership with Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council, CITB NI, and local employers to launch the Antrim and Newtownabbey Scaffolding Academy, starting Monday 17th November 2025. 

This free, two-week intensive programme gives participants the skills, training, and industry-recognised certifications needed to kickstart a career in the scaffolding or construction industry.

The academy includes:

  • CSR & COTS certification
  • Health & Safety, First Aid, and Manual Handling training
  •  Site visits and employability workshops (CV writing, interview skills, confidence building)
  •  Guaranteed interviews with local employers
  •  Post-programme support to help participants move into work

If you live in the Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough area and are currently unemployed or working less than 16 hours per week, this is your chance to take the first step towards a rewarding career in construction!
