Tameside College Construction Skills Centre

Aegis provided NEC3 Supervisor services to support the creation of the Construction Skills Centre at Tameside College in Ashton-under-Lyne. Designed in consultation with local employers, the £7m facility provides state of the art learning environments for the next generation of bricklayers, plumbers, electricians, painter and decorators and civil engineers to develop key skills, enhancing training and employment opportunities. 

The project comprised of the design and construction of a two-storey facility with part mezzanine floor. Inside the building there are training bays for students undertaking building trade training courses, as well as general teaching spaces and welfare areas for students and staff to benefit from.  

The project also involved external works being carried out, including hard and soft landscaping and the demolition of the existing Portland 2 building and substation. 

Aegis supported the project from October 2020 through to February 2022. Our NEC Supervisor had a significant role in making a difference and ensuring the delivery of a quality facility, as demonstrated by there being only 14 outstanding items recorded on the practical completion certificate.
