Overview

The CITB 2-day Site Supervisors Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) is a highly regarded health and safety training course within the construction industry.It is available for current and prospective site supervisors, and is taken by more than 40,000 people each year.


The SSSTS health and safety course is approved by CITB, because it helps site supervisors (and anyone wanting to become one) to develop:

  • A better understanding of the legal, moral and social responsibilities of their role
  • To understand the problems of the Industry, accidents, itinerant workforce
  • To understand how the supervisor role fits into the site management structure
  • How to communicate health and safety on site, including CDM, working at height, toolbox talks
  • To identify and avoid potential hazards on site, including COSHH

The highly-interactive method of delivery of this course makes it interesting, and it allows for discussion and understanding of the subject areas together with engaging, practical exercises.

During the course, candidates must pass core exercises. At the end of the course, each individual has to pass a multiple choice test which qualifies them for the Construction Site Supervisors Managers Safety Certificate.

This industry-recognised training course is ideal for all companies involved in construction – site clearance, ground and road works, building, assembly, civil engineering, installation, maintenance, decorating or demolition.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
