We focus on helping learners understand what to do, practise essential skills and apply them confidently.

Choose the training route that works for you:

Book an Open Course: join a scheduled course at our Bathgate training venue, with individual places available to book.
Book On-Site Group Training: bring training directly to your workplace or chosen venue across Scotland and elsewhere in the UK. Group bookings start from four learners, with most courses accommodating up to 12.

We can adapt examples, scenarios and delivery to your organisation’s risks and working environment while maintaining the requirements of the qualification. Flexible and split-session delivery is available where course requirements permit, alongside online and blended learning options.

Beyond courses, our emergency preparedness consultancy, plan reviews and realistic exercises help organisations strengthen their arrangements and put training into practice.
