What Does the Course Involve?

The course is designed for construction professionals with management or supervisory responsibilities who need to understand their legal and health & safety responsibilities on site.

The training covers important areas like construction legislation, risk management, health and safety responsibilities, and effective site management. Completing the course helps site managers develop the knowledge required to manage construction work safely and effectively.

Are the Online and In-Person SMSTS Courses Priced Differently?

At CST Training, both the online and in-person versions cost £495 + VAT, at the time of writing.

While the price is the same, online training can provide other financial benefits. You don’t need to travel to a training centre, which can reduce expenses associated with fuel, public transport, parking, and potentially overnight accommodation. It can also save valuable travelling time.

Why Choose an SMSTS Course Online?

Online training provides a convenient alternative to attending a classroom. You can complete the course from home, making it easier to fit training around your existing responsibilities.

This can be particularly useful for construction professionals who work across different sites or have limited availability for travelling to a training venue. You still complete the required training, but without needing to be physically present in a classroom.
