SMSTS Course

The Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) is a high quality Construction Skills training course for the construction industry.

The SMSTS is one of the most widely recognised certified courses for Site Managers, Agents and Supervisors. SMSTS certificate holders find it easier to prove their skills to contractors and clients; in fact many employers insist that all their Site Managers hold the certificate.

Aimed at site managers, agents and supervisors, the scheme gives a thorough understanding of the key health and safety issues on site. It will help them to develop a better understanding of their moral and social responsibilities, as well as giving the skills and knowledge needed to manage health and safety on site, in compliance with legislation.

We offer the SMSTS course at our training facility in Bersham. See the address below.

Commencing:

The courses will be run on a Friday over 5 consecutive weeks.

Cost of the course is £565 including books (GE700) and registration fees. Members of Construction Skills will receive a daily course attendance grant of £35 per day's training and an achievement grant of £90 for passing the five day course (saving £265).
