Kevin Bennison, the founder of InspHigher and a respected voice in the lifting industry joins us to talk about what’s gone wrong with construction training and how to fix it. 

As he draws on his experience from the military to the crane cab, Kevin shares with our host Jimmy Webb from UK Construction Blog on how competence, repetition, and leadership can transform the industry from a “tick-box” culture into one built on real skill and accountability.

🔹 Why current training standards fall short
🔹 The difference between qualification and competence
🔹 How to lead yourself and others in lifting operations
🔹 Practical advice for companies and professionals looking to raise standards

It’s a candid look at how the industry can do better, and what it takes to get there. Follow Kevin’s journey and the work of InspHigher through the links below:
