College and construction firm team up to help students

Morrison Construction and West Lothian College have developed a new course that provides a new career pathway for students.

The first class of students for the Pre-Apprenticeship Carpentry and Joinery course at West Lothian College attended their induction at the Livingston campus last week.

The course ensures students not only learn necessary trade skills but earn necessary industry qualifications while gaining experience working with businesses that are part of Morrison Construction’s trusted supply chain.

Morrison Construction’s Economic Performance Manager Jim Johnstone attended the induction day. He said: “We are delighted to be here today and meet with the first class of this new pre-apprenticeship course.”

Jackie Galbraith, Principal of West Lothian College, said: “Today is a landmark day for West Lothian College and a demonstration of what can be achieved when colleges work in partnership with leading industry players like Morrison Construction.”
