Skill Overview

With the growing demand for housing developments and skilled professionals, the UK construction industry needs qualified Construction Site Supervisors now more than ever.

The Pearson HNC Construction Management (Construction Site Supervisor) (HTQ) at University Campus Oldham is more than just a qualification; it is your gateway to a rewarding career in one of the UK’s fastest-growing sectors.

Developed with employers, this industry-recognised Higher Technical Qualification equips you with the technical expertise and leadership skills to manage projects, lead teams, and ensure safety and quality on site. 

With expert tutors and a supportive learning environment, you will gain the confidence and skills to progress into supervisory roles, higher apprenticeships, or further advanced study in site supervision and management.
Graduates often progress into roles such as Construction Site Supervisor, Assistant Site Manager, Site Engineer, Clerk of Works, Health & Safety Supervisor, Works Manager, Project Coordinator, etc.  

Many also choose to continue to postgraduate study in the areas of Construction Project Management, Building Surveying, Building Information Modelling (BIM), Health, Safety & Environmental Management, Sustainable Construction & Design

Learning Objectives

The HNC units lay the foundation of learning by providing a broad introduction to construction and different construction management functions. This develops and strengthens core skills while preparing students for specialist subjects at HND or to enter employment with the qualities necessary for job roles that require some personal responsibility.

Students will gain a wide range of construction knowledge linked to practical skills gained through research, independent study, directed study and workplace scenarios. Students are involved in vocational activities that help them to develop behaviours (the attitudes and approaches required for a competence) and transferable skills.

Transferable skills are those such as communication, teamwork, research and analysis, which are highly valued in higher education and in the workplace.
