Transforming the Construction Industry's Workforce Training through DX
In a significant move to address training challenges in the construction sector, WillGroup, based in Nakano, Tokyo, has announced the expansion of its certification exam preparation app, STADIV. Initially launched to support electrical engineering, the app will introduce features for piping engineering starting June 2026. For more information, visit

The Importance of Piping Engineering in the Construction Workforce
The construction industry often mandates the certification as a first-level construction management engineer, a requirement that is generally well supported with structured training programs. However, sectors like electrical and piping engineering, although they play crucial roles in construction, have not received adequate educational resources tailored to certification preparation.
Piping engineering is especially complex, covering various specialties like air conditioning, drainage, and sanitation systems. The requirement for a deep understanding of industry-specific terminology and principles makes this field challenging for potential candidates.
Recognizing this gap, WillGroup has responded to stakeholders’ calls for a comprehensive learning experience that goes beyond mere problem-solving. Feedback indicated a need for an effective learning experience that genuinely deepens understanding, leading to the decision to include piping engineering in the STADIV app.
