ECITB CCNSG Leading a Team Safely in Stoke-on-Trent
The supervisory module of the CCNSG scheme, at our Stoke-on-Trent centre. For people who already hold a Safety Passport and now have a team to look after on an engineering construction site.
About this course
Leading a Team Safely sits on top of the CCNSG Safety Passport. It is for the leading hand, chargehand or supervisor: somebody who has moved from doing the work to being answerable for how other people do it.
It covers the supervisor’s responsibilities on an engineering construction site, briefing and communication, the permit to work interface, monitoring what is actually happening rather than what was planned, and handling the moment when you have to stop a job.
You need a current CCNSG Safety Passport before you can sit it, so check the date on your card before booking.
The centre is Trent House, 234 Victoria Road, Fenton, Stoke-on-Trent ST4 2LW. Fenton sits just off the A50 and the A500, a few minutes from junction 15 of the M6, and Stoke-on-Trent station is a short taxi ride away.
We draw candidates from Newcastle-under-Lyme, Stafford, Crewe, Congleton, Leek, Cheadle, Uttoxeter, Market Drayton and the wider Staffordshire and south Cheshire area. If a date at Stoke-on-Trent does not suit, the same course runs at our other centres and we can deliver it at your own premises anywhere in the UK.
- What changes when you become responsible for other people rather than only for yourself
- Briefing a team so the safety part is heard rather than sat through
- Risk assessments and method statements as working documents, not paperwork to be signed
- Spotting and challenging unsafe behaviour, including when it is someone senior to you
- Toolbox talks that land, and how to run one that is not read off a sheet
- Where your authority to stop the job comes from, and using it
How completing this course helps you
- An ECITB Leading a Team Safely certificate

What to expect on the day
The course is the same wherever you sit it. What changes is the room, the journey and the people in it, and those matter more than providers usually admit.
Our Stoke-on-Trent centre is Trent House, 234 Victoria Road, Fenton, Stoke-on-Trent ST4 2LW. Fenton sits just off the A50 and the A500, a few minutes from junction 15 of the M6, and Stoke-on-Trent station is a short taxi ride away. Joining instructions go out ahead of the course with timings, what to bring and where to go when you arrive.
If you are booking for a group and travel is the problem, we deliver this course at employers’ own premises anywhere in the country. For six or more people that is usually cheaper per head and nobody loses a day on the road.
Before the day
Joining instructions with timings, the address and what to bring. Tell us at booking if anybody needs support with reading, writing or access and we will sort it quietly.
On the day
Arrive a few minutes early. Bring photographic identification, which most awarding bodies require before they will certificate you.
Afterwards
We tell you the outcome and handle the registration and certification with the awarding body. If anything needs resitting we will get it booked.
Method of assessment
How Leading a Team Safely runs
It is a workshop rather than an exam course, so the day is built on discussion and on scenarios from the sector.
One day in the room
Face to face, worked through scenarios rather than slides, with the group own sites doing most of the examples.
Taking part
The ECITB expect full attendance and participation across the day. This is the part that decides whether somebody takes anything away from it.
Certificate
