🚧 New on AgendaNi: Building Tomorrow’s Workforce 🚧

Written By Rachael Conway

When Construction Futures officially launched in 2024, its ambition was clear: to inform, attract, develop and retain the talent needed to build Northern Ireland’s future built environment. Fast forward a year - our latest article explores how that mission is moving from vision to action.

In this article, we examine:

  • How digital outreach and social media campaigns are reshaping how we attract new talent in construction

  • The rising role of AI and automation - and why domain expertise and craftsmanship still matter in a high-tech world

  • The critical importance of balancing trade and technical apprenticeship pathways

  • What needs to happen next - from multi-year visibility of projects to collaboration across government, industry and training institutions

If you care about skills, construction, or how we prepare the next generation of builders, planners and engineers - this one's for you.
