Line-up revealed for Education Update

Hear from speakers across the primary, secondary and higher education sectors guiding billions of pounds of regeneration projects, as well as the contractors and designers delivering the latest school and university schemes, at this sector update on Thursday 7 November in Manchester.

Schools are expanding at pace, universities are changing the face of our towns and cities; national skills shortages are encouraging the construction of privately funded specialist training centres. How can you break into this ever-growing sector, and ensure that the projects and plans are futureproofed to enable the effective education of the generations to come?
