The ‘refresher’ course is suitable for all D&T staff who have completed the Secondary Core Level Initial Training and the personal D&T Health & Safety Portfolio, and whose Design and Technology Association accreditation is now due for renewal.

This course will extend and update your knowledge and understanding of health and safety through completion of a range of activities, including:

• Checking knowledge and understanding of H&S
• Extending knowledge and understanding of H&S
• Ensuring that Risk and COSHH assessments are ‘suitable and sufficient’
• Exploring environmental issues (lighting, heating, dust, noise and vibration)
• Investigating accidents
• Measuring competence
• Teaching and learning strategies

The Secondary Core Health & Safety Training is particularly effective when departments complete this as a whole team, as this helps to ensure a consistent approach to the management of H&S across all areas of the department.

Note 1: Attendees must bring their personal D&T Health & Safety Portfolios along as a reference and, during the course, there will be an opportunity to update this portfolio to meet the requirements for re-accreditation of the D&T Association Core Level Training Standards.

Note 2: There is no machine training included in this course.

After the session, delegates receive a digital download pack which includes current legislation, guidance materials and a range of editable H&S resources.

All the activities meet current D&T Association Training Standards.

Book today to ensure your team is confident and compliant with managing H&S within your department – practical, hands-on training delivered by experienced D&T Health & Safety Consultants.

Note 3: Courses are also regularly hosted at other centres (see Upcoming Events), which can be more cost-effective if only one or two members of staff require SCHSR training.
