The Building and Construction Gateway to Industry Schools project exposes students to a range of learning experiences to help plan their future career choices and provide pathways into para-professional roles in the building and construction industry.

- raising the profile of para-professional roles and careers in construction
- providing opportunities for industry placements
- creating links between industry and schools
- assisting with professional development for teachers.
