Earn while you learn with the LABC Academy

The LABC Academy combines paid employment with structured learning and practical experience. Its two-year trainee programme includes Level 4 and Level 5 diplomas in building control surveying. Trainees also develop the skills and experience needed to work towards becoming a Registered Building Inspector.

Alongside their studies, trainees gain on-the-job experience within a local authority building control team. Experienced professionals provide mentoring and support, helping them put their learning into practice.

This combination gives trainees the opportunity to build their knowledge while gaining experience of the profession.
