Cskills Awards is the awarding organisation for Construction Industry Training Board and works nationally with approved training and assessment centres to enable candidates to achieve qualifications and development goals. With the dissolution of the CAA in July 2013 Cskills Awards were competing as a commercial organization.
One of their strategic objectives was to:

The Cskills Awards commitment published on the website is:
We promise to provide a dedicated Quality Assurance (QA) team to help and support you every step of the way
Cskills Awards requested train4change to develop and facilitate an event to enable the Q/A team to be ‘best in class’ and to demonstrate behaviours which will deliver a world class customer experience.
The Big Build event was delivered in May 2013 to 12 of the Quality Assurance team. Delegates reported that they were 94% satisfied about the events for relevance and 92% satisfied for knowledge gained. The event overall satisfaction rating was 96%.
