This course is an ideal foundation for obtaining a basic understanding of health and safety duties and responsibilities for site safety supervision, and upon successful completion of this course, a natural progression would be the CIF IOSH Managing Safety in Construction course.

Homework between day one and day two is recommended for revision for final examination; also toolbox talk, risk assessment, method statement, presentation exercise, which are intended to provide delegates with the opportunity of demonstrating their communication skills in front of an audience.

When presentations are being made by delegates the programme will allow sufficient time, including time for tutor feedback. The examination paper will be completed in class as a closed book examination on the last day of the course. The method of assessment will be by multiple-choice questions at the end of the course as well as being expected to be interactive during the course during the case studies segments.

Upon successful completion candidates will be awarded:

• CIF City & Guilds Site Supervisor Safety  Certificate
• CIF  Red Site Supervisor Safety Card [Renewed Every 3 Years]
• 14 CPD Points

Delegates are required to attend both sessions as full attendance is required along with successful passing the examination CIF Site Supervisor Safety Certificate can only be issued upon meeting this criteria.
