Thanks Brian,

   The problem with this and other courses I have checked out is

  that they are, In House,  and usually require a minimum number of

  people.

I didn't realise that the certificate is only for three years.

 Are they serious ???

If you find it difficult to organise training for whatever reason, you could consider, as a temporary measure, purchasing a dvd. My company did this to provide a good basic level of awareness, and whilst I'm sure there are many suppliers around, we found a good range at www.seton.co.uk Might be worth considering?!

If you need general health and safety training then a good stop would be st john's ambulance.

Their commercial training arm is good and run courses often in very local places, plus you effectively support them. http://www.sja.org.uk/sja/training-courses/course-search.aspx


For anyone in the south east - Hants, Surrey, Kent, Sussex etc looking for H&S Training or industry specific training (pesticides/chainsaws/equipment all nptc or lantra accrediated) drop me an email as I sit on an landscape industry training committee and have access to many courses/trainers who organise company or group courses ( Btw - i am not on commission or have any direct financial interests :-)
