    How long will my IOSH certificate take to arrive?

    What do I need to bring to my IOSH course?

    Nothing, just turn up on the day and everything will be provided for you.

    Can IOSH courses be run on-site?

    Our IOSH Working and Managing safely courses can be run on your site or a location convenient for you, and can still be accredited by IOSH. Call the PSS training team today for a quote, if you have a group of delegates this is the most cost effective and convenient way to get your staff trained.

    Maximum delegates on an IOSH course?

    IOSH allow a maximum of 20 delegates per course, however to get the most out of training we recommend having no more than 12 delegates. This is usually the max we will allow on our courses, if you would like a group trained we can accommodate any group size up to 20.

    Can I cancel my booking?

    We require 21 days’ notice before the course is due to start for all cancellations, if you cancel between 15 and 21 days’ before the course is due to start we can refund 60% of your course fee. Unfortunately if you do not give us at least 15 days’ notice we cannot guarantee any of your course fees will be refunded.
    We will try everything we can to recover your course fee, including selling your course place to another delegate, in this instance we can recover your course fee. This however is on a case by case basis.

    Is the course guaranteed to run?

    The very nature of these workshops mean we need a minimum number of people for the course to run. This is both to make it financially viable as well as promoting a good environment for learning. Our minimum number of people is 2, which seems low, but we’d rather run the workshop if we can. If for any reason we need to cancel we’ll give you at least 14 days notice. If you would like to find out more about bookings so far, feel free to give us a call and we’ll be happy to help.
