About Me
- CBE Learning - a diploma support update
- www.cbelearning.com is a Wates Group funded website, designed to support both students and teachers with the Construction and Built Environment (CBE) Diploma curriculum. This educational resource will be free for tutors teaching the diploma at schools and colleges and designed to complement their other teaching materials and bring the construction industry to life. With a go live date of September 2009, the website is due to be rolled out to 386 schools and colleges and 50 consortiums. Wates Group is one of the largest family owned construction businesses within the industry. The business is committed to ensuring its work within the education sector goes beyond buildings and has been a supporter of the Construction and Built Environment Diploma (CBE) throughout its development and inception. Recently awarded the Major Contractor of the Year accolade, Wates was established in 1897. It remains privately owned by the Wates Family - employing more than 2,200 people and with a turnover of £1 billion – and works across a range of sectors including education, prisons, affordable housing, retail fit out and refurbishment, office interiors, land development and commercial buildings.
Wates recognised for commitment to the CBE Diploma
Wates Construction was the first company to receive recognition for their commitment in developing the Diploma in Construction and the Built Environment (C&BE) and has been presented with a Recognition Scheme mark and certificate.
ConstructionSkills, the lead partner in the development of the new C&BE Diploma, together with its Diploma development partners, launched the Recognition Scheme to identify and reward partner businesses on board to deliver the Diploma.
The Recognition Scheme enables supporting companies to showcase their commitment in helping develop tomorrow’s workforce. Firms receive a certificate and a recognition mark that they can use in their marketing material as a badge of pride in their efforts to help young people prepare for a future in work or higher education.
