Construction facilities

If you want to work in the construction industry, the purpose-built training facility on the Wellington Road campus is where you’ll lay the foundations for your future career. 

Whether you want to specialise in one trade, learn skills that go hand-in-hand – such as bricklaying and plastering – or become multi-skilled so you can offer more services to your clients, you’ll learn the skills you need. 

 The construction centre offers dedicated workshops and classrooms for: 

  • Brickwork 
  • Carpentry and joinery 
  • Electrical and electronics 
  • Gas Centre 
  • Groundworks 
  • Painting and decorating 
  • Plant 
  • Plastering 
  • Plumbing 
  • Rail

Each individual trade area has a wide range of professional tools and equipment and you’ll get the chance to try out new products and hear from trade experts about the latest innovations, techniques and developments in the industry. 

We are working in partnership with The West Midlands Combined Authority and City of Wolverhampton Council to deliver a range of training programmes in the laying and maintenance of rail track.

The Rail Training Centre has a 40-metre rail track installed ready for those who are looking to develop and up-skill their career in rail and track maintenance.
