IOSH Managing Health & Safety Risks in the Education Sector  

Two day course

The Education sector presents a variety of unique hazards and risks.

This exclusive course has been specially designed by WorkNest based on our extensive knowledge and experience of working with schools, colleges and other education and training providers. Largely equivalent to the IOSH Managing Safely course, it focuses solely on the Education sector and is compressed into two days in recognition of the limited time you have available.

On successful completion of this course, delegates will be awarded an IOSH-accredited certificate in Managing Health & Safety Risks in the Education Sector.

All of our Health & Safety training courses are designed and delivered by time served safety practitioners with significant hands on experience.

When you take our core Health & Safety service, any training will be delivered by your named consultant, enabling us to tailor the course to you for maximum impact.

This two-day course is suitable for all teaching and support staff with supervisory duties who are in direct contact with students. It is particularly relevant to people employed in primary, secondary and special schools, as well as FE colleges and universities.
