Hercules Construction Academy broadens access to funded skills training

Hercules Construction Academy offers funded training to help construction and civil engineering businesses improve workforce skills while controlling training costs.

Its programmes are available to employed, unemployed and self-employed learners, as well as small and medium-sized businesses. Depending on eligibility, training may be fully or partly funded by the UK Government.

The offer gives employers a practical way to improve workforce capability without paying the full cost of training. It also helps individuals gain recognised qualifications that can support career progression, new responsibilities and access to more specialised work.

Training budgets can be directed towards priority skills, while public funding reduces the immediate cost of development. This can make it easier to respond to skills gaps, prepare employees for new roles and improve operational resilience.

Hercules Construction Academy also supports businesses in selecting suitable courses. A training needs analysis can be used to identify current gaps and match employees with relevant programmes.

Hercules plc (LON:HERC) is a collaborative, innovative company delivering services of the highest standards within the Civil Engineering sector of the construction industry. Hercules Academy provides a comprehensive range of courses designed to equip individuals with the essential skills and knowledge required for a long and successful career in the construction industry.
