Description

This CDM Coordinator Training course is structured to equip participants with the essential knowledge to manage and monitor compliance with health and safety regulations under the CDM framework. It highlights the importance of integrating mental health awareness, OCD awareness, and a culture of care into construction project planning and coordination.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how to promote care within the construction process, applying health and safety strategies that consider both physical risk factors and psychological wellbeing. Through detailed modules, the training covers CDM regulations, risk assessment procedures, documentation requirements, and key principles for fostering a safe working environment. Additionally, the course incorporates practical insights into recognising mental health conditions, with a specific focus on OCD awareness, and how they intersect with safety responsibilities.

The course underscores the growing need to treat mental health with the same seriousness as physical health in the construction sector. By weaving care and awareness into compliance practices, the training ensures participants are well-prepared to contribute to safer, more respectful, and legally compliant workplaces.

Topics covered include:

  • CDM Regulations and legal duties of a Coordinator

  • Promoting care in construction site culture

  • Identifying and addressing OCD awareness in team settings

  • Supporting mental health among workers and stakeholders

  • Strategies for improving both physical and psychological safety

  • Embedding health and safety standards into design and planning phases

Throughout the course, emphasis is placed on how mental health, OCD awareness, and care are integral to health and safety success. These themes are revisited in every unit to reinforce their relevance in daily practices.

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.
