Excitement at the ConCove Conference: A Focus on Degree-Level Apprenticeships


Last week, the ConCove conference buzzed with energy as industry leaders and enthusiasts gathered to discuss the future of Degree-Level Apprenticeships (DLA). Emmolina had the privilege of sitting on a panel alongside Brenden Mischewski and Mike Crossan, where the atmosphere was electric, leaving a lasting impression on all attendees.


What stood out most during the session was the remarkable level of interest and support from those in the industry. The audience posed insightful questions, and discussions continued long after the panel concluded. It was evident that participants were not merely curious; they were genuinely excited about the potential impact of the DLA model on construction and infrastructure.


As the leader of the pilot program, Emmolina was particularly heartened to witness the strong appetite for transitioning from pilot to practical implementation. The enthusiasm expressed by attendees reinforced the belief that this initiative can make a significant difference in the sector.


The highlight for Emmolina was witnessing that DLA in Quantity Surveying is not just a theoretical concept; it is a movement that people are eager to see come to fruition. The readiness to engage in this change is palpable. She left feeling encouraged, inspired, and motivated to propel this pilot initiative forward.
