- In September 2022, CCG provided young people from different high schools an overview of the different careers in construction. They also explained what skills were needed and the entry pathways. The format of this event was a virtual case study. There was a live Q&A with two graduate apprentices, an apprentice bricklayer, and an apprentice joiner.
