<p>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.</p><p>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.
