The Construction Industry Training Scheme does not operate in Northern Ireland.

The Construction Industry Training Board in Northern Ireland is the only remaining industrial training board and it raises annually a statutory levy to encourage training in the construction industry in Northern Ireland through:

identifying and meeting industry training needs; encouraging new entrants to join the construction industry; providing training, training advice and grant aid to levy paying employers, and; monitoring training standards.
