NoKCS Membership Card Over the next twenty years or so, there will be an unprecedented amount of development throughout North Kent from the Dartford Crossing to the Isle of Sheppey and we want to ensure that as many local businesses have the chance to profit from the opportunities on offer. Not just local businesses but local communities as well. The regeneration of North Kent has to be based on long-term partnerships between the public sector and private companies; central government and local authorities; major contractors and local suppliers and between employers and local jobseekers.

North Kent Construction Skills (NoKCS), is particularly concerned about providing the skills needed to underpin the regeneration across North Kent.

The project aspires to bridge the skills gap and ensure that the local people have every opportunity to share in the benefits that a buoyant, competitive and sustainable construction sector will bring. The project has devised a scheme – ‘Present a Pledge’ - where companies across Kent can make a difference by working collectively to bridge the skills gap.

The House of Pledges gives business leaders the opportunity to give something back to the community by providing young people with the prospect of working with them through a work experience programme and learning incentives.
