How to get started

As with anything new, it can be easy to get overwhelmed, but with a good plan of action you’ll have your training program nearly running itself in no time. We're making getting started simple regardless of whether you're a small or enterprise construction business.

WHAT BEST DESCRIBES YOUR CURRENT TRAINING?

We don’t have a training program

Start simple with a small group of champions

It’s ok to dip your toes in the water if you’re not ready to dive into the deep end. Many contractors go their first few weeks with a group of executives, foremen, or other leaders that stand behind Training.

Start training on leadership and safety

Once your champions have a good feel for Training, get leadership and safety out to your team...something everyone can use. Many of our customers do this.

Build your training program

If you want highly productive and safe crews, building a culture of training throughout your company is a great way to ensure success. Take ideas from your group discussions and start rolling out Training to all of your crews.

Continue to grow your training program

Keep collecting feedback from your team, watch your people improve, and watch your business grow with them. Spot the gaps in your new training program and create your own custom content to help fill them.

We have a basic training program

Select a small group of champions

You probably know a few people on your team who get behind the idea of ramping up your training program. These are great people to start with.

Pilot with your small group

Give Training a go! Even if it’s just for a week, let your champions explore the platform, dig through the training content, and imagine all the ways the broader team can benefit.

Integrate into your broader training program

You’ll have great feedback from your champions on how you can use Training with your team. To get started, watch a few videos with the time you already use for your basic training and have discussions over what they’re learning.

Level up with a BuildWitt Training expert

Once you’ve integrated, you should already be seeing a return. Our team can help you use BuildWitt Training to take your program to the next level.

We have a robust training program

Get comfortable with the courses

Have your lead trainer, safety manager, or point people for BuildWitt Training explore the content and make a plan for how it can supplement your existing program.

Introduce your team to BuildWitt Training

Great training companies like Hoopaugh, Petticoat-Schmitt, Wayne Brothers, and more are assigning custom “welcome” courses to their team to help them settle in and get them moving inside the app.

Measure your results and continuously improve

Have discussions with your training leaders, keep an eye on the performance dashboards. We’re constantly uploading new courses to the content library, but we left room for you to upload your own training content so your team gets exactly what they need.

Here’s how real contractors (not actors) are getting it done with BuildWitt Training

No need for an expert trainer

Some of our most active accounts have a trainer on staff, but many are just business leaders who believe in the importance of investing in people. Regardless of level, BuildWitt Training is set up to launch your training program or upgrade what you already have in place.

Group training

Lyness hasn’t backed away from the group training setting since signing up for BuildWitt Training. Instead, they’ve allowed BuildWitt Training to aid them in this familiar training feel.

With roughly 50 employees on their team, they see it as a tool to help their managers get more time back and help their employees advance in their careers.

Reduce Training Time

Custom training content

Bachtel Excavating focuses on hiring people willing to learn, not previous excavating experience. It’s important to them to influence and educate their people the way they want.

While they’re thrilled to have our content in the app, Matt Bachtel, President, has stated it’s their in-house, custom content they can easily distribute that will have the most impact.

Find Talent Easier

Leading the pack

Will Power already had an amazing training program consisting of weekly sessions led by CEO, Will Schuler. Along with it, a goal to get young folks new to the industry to be the best pipelayers in Indiana. So, why add BuildWitt Training to the mix?

Will is running to win the race, nothing less. He recognized BuildWitt Training as a tool that can serve his people better and faster and will help him stay ahead of the competition.
