Flexible deliveryconstruction training FAQs
Questions construction L&D and office managers ask us
Can training be delivered in a site cabin or portakabin?
Yes. Our trainers regularly deliver courses in site welfare units and meeting rooms, as well as head offices. We’ll check power, space and connectivity needs with you before the day.
Do you train subcontractors as well as direct staff?
Yes, many of our construction clients book training for subcontractor teams alongside their own staff. Let us know who’s attending when you enquire.
How much does construction staff training cost?
In-house Microsoft 365 and Copilot courses start from £695 + VAT for up to 8 attendees. Business and management skills courses start from £845 + VAT. Public course places start from £325 + VAT per person. Your quote confirms the exact fee.
Can the content be tailored to our projects and site systems?
Yes, tailoring is included. Your trainer will discuss real workplace scenarios – valuations, programmes, RAMS or client reports – before the course to build them into the exercises.
What if our site works early starts or shift patterns?
We regularly schedule half-day and bitesize sessions around early starts, shift handovers and site working hours. Tell us your preferred times when you enquire.
How many staff can attend a course?
Group sizes are flexible, from 1-to-1 coaching for a single site manager up to 20 delegates for a classroom-style session. We’ll recommend the best size for the topic.
Do you offer discounts for national or multi-site contractors?
Yes. Book five or more courses on a single purchase order and arrange them across the next 12 months at a discounted rate – useful for contractors training teams across several sites.
Can you raise invoices against a purchase order?
Yes, we regularly work with contractors’ procurement and finance teams and can invoice against a PO. Let us know your process when booking.
Which construction businesses have you worked with?
We’ve delivered training for housebuilders, main and principal contractors, civil engineering firms, M&E and specialist subcontractors, and plant & equipment hire companies across the UK.
