Train Talent
122. The Government and the Construction Industry Council have been providing professional and comprehensive training programmes for construction workers. The Hong Kong Institute of Construction also has a well-established training system offering a clear career progression path for its trainees. Measures to enhance training for skilled workers, subsidise the operation of small- and- medium-sized contractors and registered subcontractors, and offer allowances to registered construction workers who are underemployed or temporarily unemployed for attending training courses have been implemented since January this year.
123. The Development Bureau (DEVB) established the Centre of Excellence for Major Project Leaders, which is the first institution in Asia specialising in nurturing leaders for works projects. To enhance the professional skills of mid-tier managers in the Government and uplift the project delivery capability, I have earmarked $6 million for provision of systematic training to them in the next three years, with a view to ensuring more effective use of public resources.
