TORONTO, CANADA, August 21, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Wijs Safety Software is proud to announce it is bringing integrated custom and specialized online training to construction firms on the Wijs Safety Software platform.

The new Learning Management System helps employers improve workplace safety; stay compliant with OSHA, state and local Health & Safety regulations and standards for worker training; and fill the skills gap impacting project delivery.

The skilled labor shortage and skills gap remain stubbornly high across North America, with the gap between supply and demand taking its toll on nearly half of projects. In the AGC-NCCER 2025 State of the Construction Workforce Shortage, nearly 92% of companies reported having difficulty filling positions, and 45% of companies reported project delays due to worker shortages. Even among potential candidates, contractors reported that 57% lacked skills and qualifications and 41% didn’t have the required credentials and licenses.

Coupled with an upcoming “silver tsunami” of retiring veteran construction workers exacerbating the labor shortage, it’s clear that employers urgently require all the assistance they can get to meet their need for skilled trades and construction specialists. The Wijs Learning Management System and partnerships with specialized training providers are intended to help contractors train up to meet that need.

“The new integrated Learning Management System will enable Wijs clients to create and host their company training to meet their unique certification and micro-credential needs, in addition to providing access to online training from specialized training providers,” says Steve Hall, CEO of Wijs. “At the same time, Wijs Safety Software intelligently tracks, manages and flows certification delivery to the worker and company safety management system to ensure they’re compliant and up to date.”

Key features of the integrated LMS include:

- An intuitive online learning platform for companies to host their unique training content
- Access to online courses from specialized training providers, with a wide range of courses from Electrical Safety with Arc Flash Awareness to Lock Out/Tag Out Training.
- Completed training certificates are uploaded to the worker profile in Wijs
- Intelligent monitoring of training requirements and certificate expiry dates, with alerts sent in advance of required renewals providing a link to the required training module
- Once the training is complete, Wijs immediately delivers the certificate to the worker and safety manager in real-time
- Instant access to worker certification in the event of an audit or safety inspection

“We want to remove any barriers to a Lean, safe work site and contractors’ ability to deliver projects on time. Training is a big part of building a strong safety culture and successful project delivery,” explains Hall. “Our intelligent training platform and partnerships with training specialists will help ensure contractors have the skilled labor they need while workers have the online training they require on demand. So everybody benefits.”
