Abstract

In setting up training recommendations and introducing new concepts to craft training, the Construction Industry Training Board and its staff fortunately broke with tradition and, armed with a timely survey report of construction occupations by the Building Research Station, courageously by‐passed a maze of committees and organisations to develop a new plan of training for construction operatives. When the plan was presented for adoption in June of 1968 it was received with some dismay and hostility by some Board and Building Committee members but was allowed to proceed on a pilot basis. Original plans were scaled down and the mechanical engineering services course was deferred for a year, but a break‐through had been made and a chance for meaningful change and progress was at hand. The year 1968/69 was to be a crucial one for the future of building craft training.
