We are a small firm and like to work to round to accommodate delegates. If you request a specific date, you are likely to be able to get trained that day. The official dates are on the IOSH website directory, but IOSH allow training providers to adapt these to meet the needs of clients.
Generally we run the IOSH courses on the following days, (but remember we are flexible):
| Mondays-Wednesdays | Managing Safely |
| Thursdays | Managing Safely Refresher |
| Fridays | Working Safely |
If you urgently need Working Safely for an ECS card, just contact us and we will fit you in at your earliest convenience.
We normally agree on a 10.00 to 10.30 am start, so you can set off after 9.00am and miss the traffic. But you can begin earlier or later depending upon your circumstances that day. If you arrive late, don't worry, you will get trained as normal or we will catch you up.
Just text or email:
telling us the course you want to do and your preferred date and time. If we are not running training at the time, we will call you back straight away and make arrangements to suit you. The chances are you will get your preferred date and time. Feel free to email, text or even phone us out of work hours.
The total prices of our courses are less than the 'excluding VAT' prices of most other providers. We will not charge you VAT because all of our courses are VAT exempt. There are no 'booking fees', deposits to pay or other such charges. Because we also advertise using third party companies, we cannot publish our prices here.
Simply pay us by 5.00pm on the day of your training. There is no need to pay in advance and if you can't make the training for whatever reason, just let us know at your earliest convenience and we will not charge you anything.
We gain a lot of pleasure from getting our students certified and all of our feedback has been very positive so far, with delegates saying comments like:
It is not uncommon for our IOSH delegate feedback forms have all of the 'excellent' boxes ticked.
Investment in IOSH training is a strong indication of positive safety culture within your organisation. Implementing the strategies of Managing Safely and Working Safely will encourage workers to be more motivated and will be favourably regarded during HSE visits. Numerous case studies have proved that for every £1 invested in good health and safety equipment, training and practice, at least £7 is saved. This is known as the 'iceberg effect'.
We take a keen interest in students' experiences regarding safety and encourage them to share their experiences and practices they see at work. We also encourage delegates to take as long as they need to gain confidence when learning new knowledge and developing skills and not to hesitate in asking us questions.
