Unlock the Power of an Industry Teaching Network
The OA SkillMakers Project is designed to revolutionise how construction education is delivered. By building a nationwide network of industry experts, we’re empowering college educators with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to teach the modern skills and competencies required for the construction sector of tomorrow.
The OA Skillmakers project brings together industry professionals and educators to join forces to inspire and equip the next generation, transforming not just the future workforce but the communities we live in. This is the essence of an Industry Teaching Network—a vibrant partnership built on collaboration, shared knowledge, and the drive to create value.
By connecting our industry experts with local schools and colleges, this network empowers teachers to bring real-world experience into the classroom, bridging the gap between education and industry. It’s not just about teaching technical skills; it’s about sparking curiosity, fostering creativity, and opening students’ eyes to exciting career paths they might never have considered.
