All learners will complete three mandatory core units which holistically cover employment, employability skills and general construction practices in the sector over time. Learners will also need to show the development of their planning and evaluation skills within a construction related area.

Learners will be required to study brickwork specialism in the construction sector. Learners will focus on developing the knowledge, skills and understanding contained in the relevant National Occupational Standards for that trade, as well as deepening their understanding of how practice in this trade has changed, and is still changing, over time. 

Practical units to complete will include:

• Set out to form masonary structures
• Erect masonary structures

Learners applying for this course will require an interview with specialist staff within the construction department.
