SSSTS Course with Scott

Recently undertook the SSSTS course with Scott. I was blown away with how he turned a pretty boring topic into a fun couple of days.

CITB SSSTS Site Safety

The couple of days course flew in. Trainer was very knowledgable and the office staff were efficient in getting me booked in. Came away from the course with loads of new information. Would highly recommend the course.

SSSTS Refresher

Did the SSSTS refresher with Skills and had a really good overall experience. I did the course online and was surprised at how easy it was to join the class and take assessments online. I'd suggest that people do it online to save them having to drive to the class.
