Duration: 5 days
Qualification: CITB Site Management Safety Training Scheme Certificate
Course Description:
As a CITB Construction Skills course, SMSTS is the most recognisable award for showing competence in site management health and safety. It is designed for those who are about to acquire or who already have site management responsibilities.
Our approved and experienced trainers teach attendees about the current management safety legislation and how to effectively implement it in order to reduce the number of injuries and deaths on construction sites in the UK.
At the end of the course attendees take a short test and upon successful completion of this test and the exercises throughout the 5 days they will receive a CITB approved SMSTS award.
This certificate is valid for five years and as you approach this limit you must take a refresher SMSTS course which lasts two days which we also deliver at our specialised training centres.
