Sam Patel , UKCW event director , commented : “ Skills development , training and recruitment are all fundamental to the future of the construction sector - and that includes changing perceptions and highlighting the breadth of opportunities available .
“ Our increased focus on these areas at UKCW London reflects the need for career advice , training and development that are so vital to both those already working in the sector and those who are looking to begin their careers .”
