The academy also impressed with its innovative 'Skills 4 Life' training model, which aims to produce the best tradespeople within the sector and assist personal development.
Danny Jones, from the Willmott Dixon 4Life Academy, said: "We are extremely proud to receive recognition for all the work we've been doing at the Academy, to provide new skills to members of the Birmingham community. We are still in our first year of operation, so it is fantastic to receive this accolade so early in our development. We have recently reached the milestone of helping 2,000 people to receive training and look forward to building on this as we strive to leave a lasting legacy and ensure there is no lack of local skilled tradespeople in future years."
