Abstract: The paper deals with further professional education, which involves educational activities aimed at improving knowledge, skills and abilities related to work performance. The focus is on selected attributes of preparing and implementing further professional education in construction companies in Slovakia. The research model was designed to detect weaknesses in assessing educational needs and the kinds and forms of education, to help improve the future organization of further professional education. The authors determined research assumptions and research hypotheses, conducted a questionnaire survey, and analyzed the statistical significance of the results using statistical tests and coefficients. There is minimal use of special-purpose methods for assessing educational needs; qualification education prevails in companies that most frequently provide adaptation education and introductory training. Statistically significant differences in the approach to further education were found based on level of completed education, job position, and company size. In further professional education that requires a guided form of education, distance education (either offline or online) is suitable for construction companies.
