Brinkmann Constructors empowers field teams with mobile-enabled learning

Prior to Docebo, Brinkmann’s training approach relied on manual processes. With many workers not using desks, it became clear that a more modern, accessible solution was needed to keep up with the pace and complexity of field operations. The lack of a unified platform made it difficult to ensure consistent onboarding experiences and track progress across the organization.

To overcome these challenges, Brinkmann implemented Docebo as their centralized learning platform. A standout element of the rollout was the branded mobile app, configured specifically for Brinkmann. This personalized mobile experience increased credibility and engagement among employees, who recognized it as an internal tool rather than external software.

The mobile app allowed field employees to access onboarding and training content directly from their job sites. It also enabled push notifications to prompt completions, streamlined tracking, and created a consistent learning experience across teams. Danielle noted that the system made training significantly more accessible, empowering field staff to engage with the content on their own terms and timelines.

Launching with a slam dunk: The March Madness campaign

To launch Docebo, Brinkmann introduced a March Madness-themed campaign. Employees were invited to join a learning tournament featuring a bracket-style leaderboard, point scoring for completing key courses, and weekly highlights of top performers. Prizes and recognition further motivated participation.

Danielle shared that the initiative wasn’t just about fun; it was about building a learning culture rooted in teamwork and continuous improvement. The response was overwhelmingly positive, particularly among field crews unfamiliar with digital learning. Within six weeks, the campaign resulted in more than 8,000 course completions.

The impact of Docebo was immediate and measurable. More than 90% of field employees adopted the mobile app. Onboarding is completed on time by 99% of new hires, resulting in faster ramp-up and quicker time to productivity. Course completion rates soared, and superintendents noticed better-prepared teams arriving on job sites.

Danielle emphasized how valuable Docebo’s analytics have been. The team could monitor course progress, analyze feedback, and make quick improvements. They also use Docebo Content by OpenSesame to rapidly expand their course offerings. Danielle explained that Docebo Content by OpenSesame allowed them to fill content gaps with ready-to-use, high-quality modules on leadership, communication, and soft skills. This saved time and ensured the team could focus on strategic learning goals instead of starting from scratch.
