The SMSTS Refresher Course is designed to develop candidates and give them responsibility and accountability for the site’s safety, health and well-being. This course comprehensively reviews current health and safety legislation, including the latest developments in risk assessment and safety management. The SMSTS training course is essential for those who wish to maintain their certification and meet the latest industry standards.
Our study reinforces the importance of health and safety management in construction sites. Participants will gain valuable insights into up-to-date welfare and environmental legislation, controlling hazards and risks, and essential responsibilities of managers and supervisors.
Who Should Attend?
This SMSTS Refresher Course is designed for individuals with valid Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) certificates. The certification must be renewed every five years to ensure health and safety regulations compliance. Candidates must take a refresher course before completing their current certification. Failure to do so will result in losing eligibility for refresher courses and the requirement to repeat full SMSTS training.
This course is suitable for site managers, project managers, and those responsible for health and safety on construction sites. It ensures that all attendees are aware of current practices and legal requirements.

This detailed content aims to equip candidates with the necessary skills to effectively manage site safety and ensure compliance with all relevant regulations.
Final Qualification
Delegates will be awarded the Construction Skills Site Safety Plus Certificate upon completing the course. This certification will be provided as an electronic PDF, which is recognized and accepted across the construction industry as proof of compliance and understanding of site safety protocols.
Additional Information
To enrol in the SMSTS Refresher Course, candidates must hold a Site Management Safety Scheme (SMSTS) certificate obtained within the past five years, which must still be valid. This prerequisite ensures that all participants have a foundational understanding of site safety and are familiar with the basic principles before attending the refresher course.
If your certificate has expired or is close to expiring, it is crucial to promptly book your place on the refresher course. Waiting until after the expiration may lead to complications and the need to complete the full SMSTS training course again, which can be time-consuming and costly.
