After each Regional Qualifier the competition scores will be quality assured and moderated by the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB). We will release the names of the top 3 scoring competitors for each trade category at each Regional Qualifier on this page within one week of the competition taking place.

Please note, if you have placed in the top 3 for your Regional Qualifier, it does not guarantee your place at the SkillBuild National Final, you must score within the top eight nationally to qualify for a place at the finals.

If you have any further questions, please read our FAQs or contact the team at SkillBuild@citb.co.uk.
