The CITB Director's Role for Health & Safety course is aimed at directors and senior managers; with the purpose of recognising the human, economical and financial implications of non-compliance with health & safety legislation.  The course provides a summary of how to promote a positive health and safety culture within an organisation.  Workshop exercises throughout the day will give delegates the opportunity to discuss their thoughts about health and safety and their responsibilities in an open forum.

This Working at Height including Harness Safety and Manual Handling course is designed to provide delegates with the knowledge to work safely at height, while also covering the correct uses of safety harnesses, and safe completion of manual handling tasks.

Where an organisation’s risk assessment of First Aid needs identifies that there is a requirement for Emergency First Aid at Work practitioners, then this national Award in Emergency First Aid at Work satisfies the requirements of the regulatory body for First Aid – the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

The Level 2 Award in First Aid for Mental Health qualification over one-day provides learners with the knowledge to recognise a range of mental health conditions, how to start a supportive conversation and when and how to signpost a person to seek appropriate professional help.  Learners will know how to recognise and manage stress and understand the impact of substance abuse.  They will learn about the first aid action plan for mental health, be able to put it in place and know how to implement a positive mental health culture in the workplace.

Learners will not diagnose or treat mental health conditions as this can only be carried out by healthcare professionals but will gain the knowledge to identify when a person may have a condition and know where they can go to get help.
