This awareness course is aimed at anyone who requires a course in health and safety awareness. It is designed to meet the Health and Safety regulations and covers an awareness in Health & Safety.  Some industries and occupations only require a basic understanding of health & safety rules and practices or require staff to just complete induction into health & safety. This basic course is ideal to meet this requirement.  The course covers the important points but does not go into the detail our level 1, 2 or 3 courses cover.

You can also complete our full level 1 or level 2 courses as online or classroom courses nationally.

The content of this and all our courses has been independently certified as conforming to universally accepted Continuous Professional Development (CPD) guidelines and come with a Certified CPD Statement as well as a ProTrainings Certificate and for online courses an Evidence Based Learning statement.
