Greenlight Carpentry Employer's Drop In Sessions (Plymouth)

Your experience in the plastering industry matters. Join local employers to discuss apprenticeships, share feedback and influence changes.
About this Event

The future of the carpentry workforce shouldn’t be shaped without the voices of the employers working within the industry every day.

From skills shortages and changing site expectations to finding apprentices who are genuinely workplace ready, carpentry businesses understand the challenges better than anyone.

That’s why Greenlight is bringing employers together for an open discussion focused on improving training, strengthening apprenticeship delivery and helping shape the future of the trade.

We want to hear:

✔ What today’s apprentices do well - and where improvements are needed
✔ The skills gaps affecting your business and projects
✔ How training providers can better support carpentry employers
✔ What future apprenticeship programmes should prioritise
✔ The challenges facing businesses across the sector right now

This isn’t a presentation - it’s a chance to have honest conversations, share experiences, and influence meaningful change.

If employers don’t help shape training, who will?

Your experience matters. Your expectations matter. Your feedback can help ensure future carpenters enter the industry with the skills employers actually need.

Join the conversation, connect with other employers and help shape the next generation of carpenters.
