This Site Management Safety Training Scheme – Refresher (SMSTS-R) is a two-day course for delegates who have previously passed the full Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) course or subsequent refresher course and can provide proof of attendance.

The refresher course is only for delegates who have previously passed the five-day SMSTS or subsequent refresher course and hold a valid SMSTS certificate. Evidence of their eligibility must be provided to the training provider.

If a delegate cannot provide a copy of their certificate, the online card checker can be used to establish if they currently hold a valid SMSTS certificate. If a delegate cannot be located on the system and no evidence of their certificate can be found, they will have to attend the full SMSTS course.

Failure to attend the refresher course before the expiry of an existing certificate will require a delegate to re-enter the scheme by completing the full SMSTS course (if they wish to remain in the scheme).

Delegates must be competent in written and spoken English, which is necessary for operating efficiently at the site management level.

This is a two-day course. Delegates are required to complete the full course to be eligible for certification.

Following the successful completion of the course, delegates will be awarded a digital CITB Site Safety Plus certificate that is valid for 5 years. To remain certified in this area, delegates will need to retake the course before the expiry date.

Companies who are CITB registered and meet their grant scheme eligibility requirements may be able to claim a short course duration grant. Please contact us for further information.
