Delivering consistent
health and safety training
online at scale with
digital-first learning and
eLearning solutions for
construction teams.
John Sisk & Son needed a way to train its construction workforce efficiently using digital health and safety training and eLearning, without relying on time-intensive, classroom-based sessions. With operations across Ireland and the UK, the company sought a scalable solution that could deliver high-quality, branded Health and Safety training. It had to be accessible anytime, anywhere, and aligned with regional compliance requirements. Partnering with SureSkills, Sisk launched its first LMS and introduced digital training that is built for site readiness, future growth and a safety first culture.
This approach enabled scalable workplace safety training across multiple locations while maintaining consistency and compliance.
The Challenge
Sisk’s Health and Safety training had historically been delivered in person. With hundreds of workers to onboard and upskill across jurisdictions,
this approach created logistical challenges. Sisk needed:
- A first-time Learning Management System (LMS) implementation.
- Digitally delivered health and safety eLearning aligned to its safety-first culture
- Region-specific compliance training online for Ireland and the UK
- A scalable solution for construction safety training without classroom dependency
The Solution
When safety is non-negotiable, training can’t be optional. Sisk needed more than just eLearning. They needed a scalable workforce training solution and a learning management system (LMS) for compliance training that could scale fast, stay compliant, and reflect the realities of their industry.. That’s where SureSkills delivered.
- Instructional Design & eLearning Development
Senior instructional designers with construction experience built seven interactive courses using Articulate Rise and Storyline. Each one combined real-world scenarios, assessments, and multimedia. - Brand-Aligned, Region-Specific Content
Courses reflected Sisk’s branding and safety culture. UK and Irish regulations were clearly marked, allowing full compliance without duplicating content. - LMS Implementation & Enablement for Compliance Training
SureSkills supported the rollout of Cornerstone LMS. This included SCORM testing, team onboarding, and full support for tracking and reporting. - Agile Collaboration & Scalable Process
Using the ADDIE framework and Word-based storyboards, the team enabled fast reviews, tight feedback loops, and consistent course quality.
