This partnership compliments Abingdon & Witney College’s existing Net Zero Skills Hub by enabling us to train new retrofit advisors, assessors and coordinators; all of whom will be needed to help meet the UK Government’s target to make all homes net zero by 2050.
With
an estimated 400,000 new people required within the retrofit sector, there will
be an abundance of opportunities available for those looking to upskill or
undertake a new career. To help fill this skills gap, our Net Zero Skills Hub offers
a blend of online learning, mixed with high quality on-site training, delivered
by industry experts, over four different levels of qualification. The
introductory ‘Level 2 Award in Understanding Domestic Retrofit’ provides an
easy access to all those interested in the subject. The ‘Level 3 Award in
Domestic Retrofit Advice’, alongside level 4 and 5 qualifications, equip all
those who want to develop a career in the retrofit industry. Our partnership
aims to train new people from across Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire to
become part of the solution, as we support the industry in upgrading and
improving millions of homes, reducing our collective impact on the environment,
reducing energy use and home heating bills!
