About our
CITB Range:
Our Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) courses are designed for individuals seeking skills development that meet the needs of the British construction sector.
Grants are paid for the completion of approved short courses, which last from 3 hours to 29 days and focus on the core construction skills needed throughout the industry.
You can apply today by creating an account using the link below and following the steps to submit your CITB application.
For small businesses
Prepare for growth
Our small business accelerator programmes are aimed at sole-traders and small construction firms. They have been designed to provide leaders with the tools needed to grow and manage their business. Our group workshops allow learners to build on their knowledge and skills while sharing their experience with others. And our 1-2-1 mentoring programmes provides business owners with tailored coaching to help them take ownership of their projects, their teams, and their time.
Register with the CITB today and let us know what your business needs to succeed.
For medium businesses
Develop your talent
As a medium or large construction firm, you’re probably already paying into the CITB levy. No doubt you will want to ensure that your levy payments are being put to good use by your organisation.
With our SQA-accredited Leadership and Management Personal Development Awards (PDA) up to SCQF level 9, you can ensure that your organisation’s leadership programmes effectively develop careers and foster talent with your business.
The funding process:
Step 1.
Register with CITB
If you’re not already registered with the CITB, you can do so now. If your total wage bill (payroll and Net CIS) is under £135,000 your organisation won’t have to pay the levy. This is called the ‘Small Business Levy Exemption’. You still get access to the CITB’s funding for skills and training.
Step 2.
Choose your training
Sixth Sense offers a range of CITB-approved training programmes, from leadership and management workshops to personal 1-2-1 mentoring from a professional business coach.
Step 3.
Claim your funding
Sixth Sense will ensure you know exactly how much of your costs will be funded by the CITB. Most of our courses are fully funded and we’ll provide you with everything you need to claim your grant funding.
