Sponsoring and exhibiting at the CIOB ‘Conservation, Adaptation and Maintenance of the Built Environment’ conference today, Coniston took the opportunity to unveil a pioneering new scheme for apprentices, The International Apprentice Exchange Scheme.
With the support of some key clients and partners, these plans will provide work placements for UK apprentices in Germany and vice versa, facilitated by a close relationship with the German Embassy and The Chamber of Skilled Crafts in Dusseldorf.
“Having travelled to Dusseldorf myself to spend time with the Chamber of Skilled Crafts in preparation for this initiative, I am excited and passionate about this entire concept and the positive impact we believe it will bring.
Collaboration is a catalyst for improvement, and this tool for knowledge sharing can only aid in increase of best practice.”
Steve Clarke, Contracts Director
