Our CITB Health & Safety Awareness eLearning Course provides
delegates with a detailed understanding of potential hazards when working on
construction sites, explores the common health, safety, welfare and
environmental issues in construction, identifies the delegate’s responsibility
for looking after themselves and others, outlines the employer’s legal duties, and
explains what should be done if the worker thinks that anyone’s health and
safety is being put at risk.
This interactive eLearning course also
delivers the foundational knowledge and prerequisite qualification required for
individuals looking to obtain an industry accreditation (CSCS) card.
Upon purchase, delegates will receive a unique voucher code
that will allow them access to their full eLearning course, including interactive
online course materials, an online version of the construction health and
safety awareness (GE707) publication, and an end-of-course invigilated
examination delivered online by Kentec Training. Please note that the course
price includes a same day resit in the event that delegates do not correctly
answer a safety critical question. Delegates will have a maximum of 12 months
to complete the course from the day of purchase.
If you'd instead like to book this course in a
face-to-face classroom format, please view our CITB
