Driven by the belief that practical, hands-on skills can empower individuals, CEO offers training in plumbing and electrical skills through a variety of programmes designed to meet the unique needs of its diverse participants, from children and young people to adult learners and asylum seekers.
CEO’s mission is to bridge the skills gap in the construction and engineering sectors while fostering social impact. By providing free or low-cost training, CEO enables participants to gain valuable skills and qualifications that enhance employability, confidence, and independence. The organization’s workshops and accredited courses combine real-world experience with professional instruction, fostering both personal growth and career readiness.
