Founded in 2020 by Nicola Bird and K W Bell Group, AccXel Construction School was set up to provide a whole person approach to construction education and training. In partnership with GFirst LEP, who have committed £1.96m to the project, AccXel aims to inspire, train, and connect students within the building and construction industry.

Sustainability lies at the core of everything we do at AccXel and will not only be taught via specialist professional courses but will run through all the direct delivery training, to ensure that people entering and upskilling within the industry are educated in environmental considerations.

INSPIRE
At AccXel we are encouraging the next generation to become construction professionals and promoting construction as a career of choice for all.

TRAIN
We are training and up-skilling current construction professionals in order to establish and strengthen leading-industry standards and keep abreast of the latest construction innovation and development.

CONNECT
AccXel will be the key conduit between education and industry. AccXel is the catalyst of change for the construction industry addressing acute problems of skills shortages and diversity challenges.
