Construction Managers earn an average starting salary of £27,000 while experienced Construction Managers’ average income is £70,000, according to the National Career Service. If you think you could lead a construction team but don’t have the experience or qualifications you need, consider this Construction Management course.

The aim of the course is to give you a varied and thorough understanding of all aspects of Construction Management and to set you apart from the rest in the eyes of future employers.
