WHY CHOOSE THIS COURSE
GRIT: Growing Resilience, Integrity and Tenacity
Lay the Foundation for Your Future
GRIT isn't just a course—it's a 12-week intensive experience designed to get you out of the classroom and onto the site! Are you a NEET learner (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) ready to build a real future? This is your chance to step into the world of construction and start building your career from the ground up.
Hands-On Groundwork Experience
Forget endless theory. GRIT is all about action. You'll gain crucial, hands-on physical groundwork experience directly on a course, mastering the foundational skills that underpin every major construction project.
Build Skills, Build You: On-Site & In Class
GRIT is about building more than just foundations—it's about building you. We combine practical site work with dedicated classroom sessions specifically designed to boost your Personal and Social Development. This essential balance helps you master the employability skills—like effective communication, teamwork, and resilience—that employers demand in any sector. It’s the perfect mix of hands-on experience and focused self-improvement.
Your Pathway to Success
Over 12 weeks, you'll have the opportunity to earn a number of courses, certificates, and accreditations that will directly support your next steps. GRIT serves as a powerful launchpad, opening doors to further education or securing direct employment in the construction industry.
Discover the genuine satisfaction of contributing to the foundations of significant projects. It’s time to find your GRIT and build a solid base for a thriving career!
