November 26th, 2009The National Safety Passport Gains University Accreditation
Industrial plants and employers accepting persons who have qualified from the National Safety Passport CBT course have now received further assertion that their staff have the information and expertise to work safely in a hazard laden environment.
The National Safety Passport CBT course by Cognition Media has gained accreditation from Teesside University. Users have qualified from the National Safety Passport will now not only be bestowed with their nationally endorsed EMSS (Essential Minimum Safety Standard) Safety Passport card but will furthermore lead to University points to count towards a University Certificate in Professional Development (UCPD) or another university qualification.
This break through shows the National Safety Passport’s rank as an academic as well as a professional qualification further more quanifying the excellent instruction in industrial health and safety that is delivered.
The program is completely portable allowing candidates to manage the course around their other duties. No more need for days away from the job, travelling or overnight costs; a clear winner in today’s economic climate.
The huge cost savings to the industry make the National Safety Passport a popular alternative to more traditional classroom based passport schemes and recognition from both EMSS and now Teesside University further prove the high quality of training that accompanies the cost savings.
At a price of £69.99 (ex VAT) the computer based training program includes the nationally recognised EMSS Safety Passport card which can be validated online for authenticity. This will exceed employer’s necessary requirement to provide safety, health and environment (SHE) training with a much smaller price tag than those associated with currently established schemes based in the classroom.
The training has been proven to hold the attention of the candidate and improve knowledge retention while making the learning a more enjoyable experience. Comments from both users and management has been absolutely positive.
