The ECITB supports high-quality training and development across the UK workforce and licenses its training products to a network of accredited training providers around the world.
Engineering construction industry training and testing in the UK is of the highest standard and meets the wider needs of the major projects in each of the sectors it operates, including oil and gas, power, renewable energy, nuclear, chemical, pharmaceutical, food, shipbuilding and all other construction projects including new build and transportation networks.
Over a decade ago the ECITB began operating internationally in recognition of similar demand elsewhere.
Working with almost 60 licensed training providers worldwide, the ECITB delivers internationally recognised training and qualifications in key engineering construction industry skills and health and safety programmes.
Currently we link our global qualifications with locally recognised training programmes and qualifications in more than 30 countries to ensure that successful learners graduate from one common training programme and assessment process with qualifications that are valid across international markets.
We work with regional government authorities, engineering construction businesses and many other key stakeholders associated with the industry.
Quality assurance and regular audits by the ECITB ensure the highest standards of delivery are established and maintained.
