NOCN Group is launching a digital competence platform linked to its NOCN Skills Passport, giving employers a single desktop and mobile-accessible system to track workforce capability across regulated construction and infrastructure roles. The platform goes beyond conventional CSCS-style cards and qualification databases by evidencing Skills, Knowledge, Experience and Behaviours (SKEBs) for each individual, creating a secure, evolving digital professional identity. NOCN positions this as a practical tool for demonstrating competence under the Building Safety Act by consolidating currently fragmented training, certification and compliance records.

Kilmac has standardised its survey operations on Trimble, buying six SPS720 total stations, six R780 GNSS rovers and six TSC710 data collectors with Siteworks from Sitech to complement its existing on-machine systems. The fully connected Trimble Civil Construction Technology ecosystem, managed through Trimble Business Centre and Works Manager, links office, field and plant for precision earthmoving and reduced rework on multi-phase civils and groundworks. The setup is already deployed on the £76m Clackmannanshire Wellbeing Hub and Lochies school project in Scotland, due to complete in late 2027.

Workday has released Workday Learning, powered by Sana, an AI-native training platform that combines Workday’s existing HR and skills datasets with Sana’s generative tools to personalise learning pathways for mining workforces. The system can auto-generate course content, assessments and microlearning from existing policies, SOPs and technical documents, while tracking role-specific competencies such as equipment operation, safety procedures and regulatory compliance. For mine operators, this offers a way to standardise training across sites, shorten onboarding and keep skills matrices current without manual content development.
