A new range of e-learning courses have been launched by award-winning outsourced services company, Helmsman.
The online training programmes have been tailored to meet the needs of the construction industry and are set to save companies huge amounts of time and money whilst increasing training efficiency.
With years of experience in managing training and development for clients in the construction industry, Helmsman spotted a gap in the market for an e-learning solution.
The company has developed a new range of high-impact, video based courses, which can be accessed on-site, at-home, or anywhere with an internet connection. The online courses cover health and safety related subjects through to UKATA Approved asbestos programmes and boast professionally made films which graphically demonstrate the right and the wrong way to approach best practice, offering so much more than a text book or classroom trainer ever could.
Tony Willson, Managing Director of Helmsman Services says: “The construction industry has lagged behind other industries in e-learning. Thanks to the widespread distribution of wi-fi, construction workers are now able to access online training at site offices or direct to their tablets, laptops or smartphones.
“The fully customisable training courses are devised to allow an individual to take part in training activities at times convenient to them and on-site, at their own pace 24/7.
"The new system will track a participant’s development so that the individual and manager can monitor progress. Our new online training package will also save companies time and money: e-learning can save companies up to 50 per cent of the costs of bringing in a trainer.
"In addition, and even more importantly, the amount of down time employees can save is vast and it also helps reduce a company’s carbon footprint. Helmsman will also be able to help Levy paying Clients claim grants from CITB. The cost saving for companies is vast, yet the quality and efficiency of these courses will be far greater than traditional means.”
The new online training programmes will be available from 25th April 2013 and there are free previews on the website.
