Gerry Sharpe FACQP
“When we established the ACQP Academy, our vision was clear – to create a centre of excellence dedicated to raising standards in construction quality. Too often, training in our industry has been fragmented, outdated, or disconnected from the realities of the modern workplace. The Academy, and in particular the Faculty of Construction, was built to change that."
Avoiding Artificially Inflated Prices
Many training costs in the construction industry are artificially increased due to external schemes, levies, or rebate structures such as the CITB levy. This often leaves those who do not pay into such schemes, like self-employed professionals or employees outside of eligible companies, paying full, inflated prices. The ACQP Academy removes this barrier by providing transparent pricing and real value, regardless of levy status.
