Our CITB Site Supervision Safety Training Scheme, or SSSTS course in Derby, Derbyshire is ideal for any individual considering taking on the responsibilities of planning, monitoring, organising, and administering groups of staff. Based in Staffordshire, this SSSTS course is perfect for those that have already taken up the title of Site Manager or are training towards it.
This CITB SSSTS course, delivered by the experts at Acadame, covers all relevant legislation regarding safe working in the building, construction, and civil engineering industries. Highlighting the need for risk assessment in the workplace, we will reinforce the importance of necessary control measures, and adequate communication. This will all be done with the need to sustain an appropriate health and safety culture in mind.
Our Staffordshire SSSTS course is endorsed by Build UK and exceeds the standard set by CITB for construction supervisors training.

It is however a mandatory requirement for many construction sites and a great way to increase your skills and knowledge when it comes to supervising health and safety on construction sites.
If you do need a Gold Supervisory CSCS Card, you need to look at either:
CITB pay grants for the achievement of approved short courses, which last from 3 hours to 29 days and are focused on the core construction skills needed across the industry.
