The CITB and Home Builders Federation have joined forces to form the Homebuilding Skills Partnership [HSP], that will establish a framework to set "common standards" for skills and training in the housebuilding sector. Costing £7m in total, CITB will contribute £2.7m to the initiative, HBF will supply the remaining funding, while the actual cost of training new and existing workers will come from the employers themselves. The partnership is one of 20 specialised training initiatives across a range of sectors, including infrastructure, that will receive a portion of £3.8m of funding from the CITB. Relevance: The HSP will be overseen by a board chaired by Redrow CEO John Tuttle.
