Learning at Work Week 2024

In the bustling world of construction, where every project embodies a journey of innovation and transformation, the need for lifelong learning stands as an unwavering beacon. It's a sector where expertise is not just earned through formal education and apprenticeships, but through a commitment to continuous upskilling and reskilling. Lifelong learning isn't merely a concept; it's the lifeblood of our industry, fuelling our ability to adapt, evolve, and thrive amidst the ever-shifting landscape of construction.

As we eagerly anticipate Learning at Work Week 2024, the flames of growth within Pick Everard are set to blaze brighter than ever before. It's a time when our diverse disciplines come together in harmony, united by a shared passion for knowledge and development. Through a symphony of workshops, seminars, and activities, our Learning and Development initiatives carve out a space where learning isn't just encouraged—it's celebrated as an integral part of our organisational DNA.

RISE mentoring programme

Within the crucible of Learning at Work Week, we forge not only connections between concepts and skills, but between colleagues and teams. Together, we embark on a journey of professional and personal evolution, honing our abilities, nurturing our talents, and strengthening the bonds that unite us. In this dynamic environment, every interaction becomes an opportunity for growth. Whether it's through immersive training sessions, engaging online courses, or the wisdom shared in mentorship programs like RISE, we unlock our potential and embrace the limitless possibilities that lie ahead. With the increase focus on meeting the needs of industry, investment in your technical training opportunities means we can apply time and energy for a greater return on investment not only from a financial position, but as a return on learning investment as well.

Learning flexibility

With the launch of PickademyPlus, we've ushered in a new era of learning flexibility. This innovative tool fosters open communication between employees and managers, ensuring clarity and alignment on everyone’s professional journey. It also empowers us to identify and address knowledge and skills gaps, providing targeted solutions to propel our team members toward success. As we navigate the complexities of a hybrid working world, we remain steadfast in our commitment to meeting the diverse needs of our employees. Through technology-driven initiatives like online Management Lite sessions and our national mentoring program, RISE, we're breaking down barriers and fostering a culture of collaboration and growth.

Recognising the power of self-awareness and individual learning preferences, we've introduced tools like the online 360 feedback tool and personalized career development plans. These resources empower you and our team members to take ownership of their evolution, driving personal and professional growth in tandem.

Investing in our workforce isn't just a strategic decision; it's a fundamental principle that underpins our continued success. As we look to the future, we do so with confidence, knowing that our commitment to lifelong learning will not only help us achieve our strategic goals, but propel us toward new heights of excellence and innovation.
