Green Skills – Introduction to Modern Methods of Construction (MMC)
Empowering the housing sector with tools to support challenges facing the construction industry (LSIF)
As a country we are continuing to fail to meet build targets, leaving many families living in temporary accommodation, unfit or unsuitable accommodation. Much of this delay is considered to be driven by build cost inflation, planning delays, nutrient neutrality and other factors.
Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) is regularly raised as an opportunity for the residential sector to learn from lessons of modern methods of construction that excel in the retail, health and education sector. So why has MMC not provided the same benefits in the housing sector.
Keen to delve into how MMC could benefit the housing sector, Weymouth College will be offering a two-day, fully-funded course for housing sector clients and stakeholders to gain a better understanding of the MMC approach, learning from those who have been delivering MMC homes for social housing providers and helping to develop a greater awareness of MMC for the residential sector.
