Why repeat learners matter more than one-time qualifications

Hercules Plc

Hercules Academy is building its model around a simple idea: in construction, learning cannot stop after the first course. The rules change, safety expectations tighten, and what was considered best practice five years ago may no longer meet today’s standards.

Instead of treating courses as a one-off transaction, Hercules is focusing on repeat learning. Its structure encourages workers to return, not just to refresh knowledge but to stay ahead of industry changes. For employers, this is critical. A workforce that is constantly updating its skills is safer, more compliant, and better able to meet client demands. From a risk and performance perspective, continuous training is quickly moving from a nice-to-have to a baseline requirement.

Hercules supports this by offering flexible options, including funded training and online learning. These features make it easier for workers to train without leaving the job site or taking long periods off work.

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 Construction 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.
