Communication in Construction
Why is communication so important in construction? How much of your work involves interacting with other people? Probably more than you realise. Everything you do that requires some sort of interaction is an example of why good communication is so important. From giving or receiving instructions, to placing orders for materials, and even reading and filling in documents, if your communication skills are lacking, you’re going to struggle to get by. Brought to you by the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), Communicating in Construction will help you improve your communication skills as you work towards your Level 1. With practical construction examples, you'll see how what you learn will help you in your everyday work. When you finish the course you’ll also receive a Communicating in Construction certificate, to show you've completed the course successfully! A CITB Apprenticeship account is required to enrol on this course. An English version is available at https://learn.citb.co.uk/courses/course-v1:CIT+CIT002+2018/about
Building with Maths
Think you don't need maths in construction? Think again - maths is everywhere! When did you last need to take, and work with, an accurate measurement? How often do you calculate, or estimate, the cost or quantity of materials needed on-site? Brought to you by the Construction Industry Training Board, Building with Maths will help you improve your maths skills. With practical construction examples, you'll also see how the maths you learn will help you in your everyday work. When you finish the course you’ll also receive a Building with Maths certificate, to show you've completed the course successfully! A CITB Apprenticeship account is required to enrol on this course.

In particular, they support the teaching of Unit 1 of the new Health and Social Care Level 2: Core qualification: learning outcomes 7 and 8. Learning outcome 7 requires learners to understand the importance of effective communication in health and social care. Learning outcome 8 requires learners to understand the importance of Welsh language and culture for individuals and carers. These resources are also vailable via FE colleges' learning portals.
