BBC screens Construction WorkSkills programmes

On 23 October (Sunday night / Monday morning) the BBC will screen a number of television programmes focusing on construction careers when its WorkSkills series covers the industry. Programmes begin at 2 am with a basic overview of the state of the industry and its recruitment needs and continue throughout the night. At 3.30 am there is a half-hour programme in the style of The Apprentice, following a young woman on a short work experience placement at Bovis Lend Lease. The programmes are designed to be videotaped for later playback. The full schedule is available online from BBC Learning Zone.
