Heritage & Place Programme Skills Audit- Building Professionals and Consultants Survey

Overview

If you work on traditional buildings, structures or collections in Aberdeen city and Aberdeenshire then we’d love to hear where we should be targeting funding for training and skills development.

Why your views matter

Aberdeen City Council is developing a Heritage & Place Programme which if successful will see around £5M invested in historic buildings, public realm, community activities and skills training between 2025-2030.

As part of this we are seeking the views of building specialists and contractors who are based in the city or shire, to help inform our Training Plan. That Plan could include support for apprentices, trainees and undergraduates as well as bursaries and training courses for those seeking to increase their skills, specialise or gain conservation accreditation. The survey will also support wider skills training across the city and shire in coming years. 

By taking 10-15 minutes to complete the survey you will be helping us to ensure we target funding to best meet the needs of the sector, so that together we can care for the region’s heritage now and into the future.
