 C.I.E.H. Stress Awareness Certificate

CIEH Training5

Note:

Stress Awareness is a stand-alone Level 1 qualification, which complements the CIEH Foundation Certificate in Health and Safety in the Workplace programme. It is aimed at raising awareness of likely sources of work-related stress, the range of symptoms and effects it can cause and the options available for its control. While the level of the qualification is aimed at general workers, it would provide a suitable introduction to the issue of work-related stress for more senior staff.

Successful completion will prepare students to look carefully at their own work activities and contribute to the development of strategies to combat work-related stress, in co-operation with their managers and supervisors.

This unit of study can be delivered as a stand-alone qualification and there are no specific pre-requisites.

  • Definitions of stress.
  • Stress as an occupational health hazard.
  • Identification of basic workplace stressors.

 C.I.E.H. Advanced Health & Safety Certificate

CIEH Training5

Note:

The legal requirement to train employees should extend beyond awareness and understanding of health and safety issues. In addition there is a clear need for key personnel to have the skills and knowledge to manage the health and safety function.

The Advanced Health & Safety Certificate is designed for those working in any business regardless of their product or service range. It is essential for all those who have an employment role that includes a responsibility for the management of health and safety issues. It is also an appropriate technical qualification for those wishing to apply to offer level 1 training. The programme covers a defined syllabus requiring a minimum of 40 hours tuition time and students are assessed on their performance in a 3 hour examination representing 60% of the final grade and two course assignments representing the remaining 40%.

Successful Advanced candidates will be able to manage health and safety in most businesses, by developing auditing and monitoring programmes, designing safe practices and procedures, liasing with enforcement officers, interpreting legal requirements, staff training, and establishing risk assessment projects (with additional training where necessary).

Designed For: Manager / Supervisor / Safety Personnel

 C.I.E.H. Supervising Health & Safety Certificate

CIEH Training5

Note:

The requirement for good health and safety practices in the workplace is enshrined in law but as importantly is a responsibility shared by all. Business owners and managers must ensure that policies and procedures are in place to protect not only workers but also visitors to the premises. It is essential to promote a health and safety culture in any workplace and a significant element in this strategy is the need to have a well trained and knowledgeable workforce at all levels. There are existing opportunities to train managers and operators but until now there has been little opportunity to train those at middle management levels.

'Supervising Health & Safety' combines a relevant training programme with a radically new and accessible training protocol. The examination can be taken immediately at the end of the course as a traditional pencil and paper test or taken online at an authorised testing centre. The latter option also provides the opportunity of instant results and feedback.

Designed For: Supervisors, owners, team leaders or Managers who are responsible for health and safety
