Getting the young ones into the Trade!
The Clive Holland Show
Monday, 11 August 2025 - 38 minutes
Today on the show with A-levels results day on Thursday and GSCE results day a few weeks after. We were focusing on how we can get more youth into the trades. Despite The Construction Industry Training Board - CITB - saying 2 years ago that there was a 45% increase in young people researching work within the trades, more people are saying they are hard to come by on site. And with 28% of young people saying the trades are inaccessible today I wanted to find out how more young people can begin a career in construction and whether the training they get is up to scratch. We spoke to Sammy Gates and Deb Madden from CITB to hear their view on this. Plus there's also the pub lunch quiz for your chance to grab yourself 6 points, and you'll hear the very best messages we received - Enjoy.
