Our approach
Based on dynamic, student-centred learning, our courses aim to make the learning experience more enjoyable, motivating and memorable. The training sets out to develop sound and practical knowledge and understanding for day-to-day application in the workplace and prepares each participant for the Level 3 examination.
Course coverage
Learning outcomes are grouped into two elements
- Element A Principles of Health and Safety
- Element B Applied Health and Safety
Where to study
- BSC training is organised at quality venues across the UK.
- Alternatively, where you have a number of employees to train, we can organise a cost-effective in-company training option to meet your specific needs.
Day release
Traditionally the BSC learning experience has comprised of weekly block release. Our new option now allows delegates to study for the Certificate through day release sessions. Delegates can now choose between a series of 10 six-hour daily sessions.
