  • Inside the Massive Upskilling Wave Transforming Fulton Hogan | Luke Rogers
    Jan 20 2026

    Go inside Fulton Hogan’s massive upskilling wave as Learning & Capability Manager Luke Rogers shares how his team is training 11,000+ employees across New Zealand and Australia for a multi-year ERP rollout.

    You’ll see the blended learning playbook (targeted e-learning + hands-on workshops + live sandboxes), how Oracle Guided Learning powers “learning in the flow of work,” and the metrics that matter—attendance, pre/post confidence lifts, speed-to-competence, and support-desk deflection. We also unpack change management in a decentralized workforce and lessons learned (what worked, what didn’t—looking at you, misaligned gamification).

    Perfect for L&D leaders, change managers, ERP project teams, and operations leaders in construction & infrastructure.
