Three key challenges in the construction industry
A workforce ready from day one
Construction has one of the highest rates of workforce movement of any sector. New starters, subcontractors, and agency workers rotate in and out across the life of a project, and each one needs an induction before they can set foot on site. On a project running to a programme, a worker who cannot start is a delay that does not stay local for long.
Skills shortages that put projects at risk
Shortages of qualified tradespeople, and increasing demand for specialist knowledge in areas like sustainability and digital construction, are putting pressure on project delivery. Organisations that cannot close the skills gap through construction skills training and workforce development risk lost contracts and over-relying on agency labour.
Safety compliance across every site
Construction safety compliance is non-negotiable, but evidencing it is increasingly complex. Organisations must prove that every worker, permanent or contractor, has completed the right training for their role and that records are kept up to date. Training records held in spreadsheets and managed site by site make pulling together a complete picture for an HSE inspection time-consuming and error-prone.
Access Learning solutions for construction organisations
Access Learning brings together an award-winning LMS, a library of RoSPA-assured eLearning, and intelligent automation tools. These products all sit within the Access Evo platform, so your construction teams can manage compliance training, workforce competency, and site safety without switching between systems.
Manage construction workforce training across every site, role, and contract
Access LMS Evo gives construction organisations the tools to assign, track, and evidence training across your entire workforce, and automate the administration that slows a build down. A CDM compliance check or an HSE inspection lands, and your evidence is ready before anyone has to ask.
- Personalise learning for site workers, supervisors, subcontractors, agency workers, and office teams
- Build and maintain a training record for every employee and contractor, showing what they completed, when, and whether it was assessed
- Renewal reminders triggered when certifications are due, so nothing lapses between contracts or site moves

Build a safety-aware workforce across every site
Access eLearning provides a library of RoSPA-assured construction compliance training, developed with industry specialists. Courses give your workforce the knowledge to work safely, meet their legal obligations, and understand how their actions connect to real site risk.
- Covers Working at Height, Manual Handling, COSHH, Fire Safety, Asbestos Awareness, and CDM Regulations
- Mobile-friendly and accessible on any device, on any shift pattern
- Courses include assessment components to confirm genuine engagement and understanding, not just completion
- We keep courses updated to reflect the latest HSE guidance and regulatory changes

Skills development for production leaders and future managers
Access Learning Content gives site supervisors, project managers, and quantity surveyors on-demand access to the leadership and project delivery skills their role now demands. These are the capabilities construction promotes people into management for, and rarely provides formal training in. Short videos and audio fit around site visits; eBooks and virtual masterclasses go deeper.
Career pathways for every employee
Access Careers Centre gives construction employees a structured path from where they are to where they want to go: from site worker to supervisor, supervisor to site manager, or specialist to contracts manager. Skills assessments identify the gaps. Individual Development Plans map the route. Managers get visibility of each team member's progress, so development conversations are built on evidence, not assumption, before the next project starts.
Operational compliance for manufacturing beyond training
MY Compliance Management covers the health, safety, and operational compliance obligations that sit alongside construction workforce training. H&S managers can log incidents, near-misses, and RIDDOR-reportable events with a full audit trail, so your H&S team has records ready for any inspection or regulatory visit.
- Manage multiple sites or projects from a single platform
- Plan, schedule, and manage health and safety audits with corrective action tracking
- Create and manage risk assessments, COSHH assessments, and method statements with version control
- Store, distribute, and evidence acknowledgement of safety-critical documentation
Three features that keep construction teams safe, compliant, and site-ready
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Access Learning for the construction industry.
Is health and safety training a legal requirement in construction?
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, employers are legally required to provide adequate training for construction workers in all roles. Organisations must be able to evidence that training has been completed, is appropriate for each role, and is kept up to date.
How do you manage training across multiple construction sites?
Access Learning gives you a single platform to build and manage construction training programmes across your entire project portfolio. Assign training by project, location, or workforce type, track completions centrally, and push updates to every location at once. Site managers get project-level visibility and head office gets the full picture.
How often is the construction training content updated?
Content is reviewed and updated as HSE guidance, CDM regulations, and industry standards change, developed in collaboration with construction specialists, so it reflects the risks your people face on site.
Can I create bespoke training for our site-specific procedures?
With Access eCreator, your team can build bespoke courses from scratch. Create training covering site-specific induction procedures, plant and equipment operation, permit-to-work processes, or CDM-specific policies. No technical expertise in content management required. Your team can update courses as procedures and regulations change.
Is there support for construction organisations beyond training?
Explore Access Construction’s software for contractors and homebuilders: Access Coins Evo for enterprise resource planning, Access Fonn for mobile project management, and Access ConQuest for estimating.
