BCITO today announced that it has 16,000 apprentices in training – an all-time record. To mark this milestone, Building and Construction Minister Poto Williams and BCITO interim CEO Greg Durkin visited a Kāinga Ora housing project in Cannons Creek, Wellington where they met Sam Skinner, owner of Skinner & Skinner Building Company Ltd (SSBC), a carpentry business that has just taken on four apprentices.
Speaking onsite, Minister Williams said: “I am delighted to present this award to SSBC, for their direct contribution to increasing apprenticeship numbers and supporting BCITO to reach their highest number of apprentices in active training, ever.
