THE MODULAR APPROACH

INTRODUCTION
The SpanSet modular training approach has been set up to offer a clearer explanation of the options available in height safety training. This should make choosing the correct training for your staff quicker and easier. It will also allow you to demonstrate clearly to your client the level of training and the topics covered by your staff

Each module sets out the following;

• The course duration
• The trainee to instructor ratio
• The course content
• The course content split between theory and practical sessions
• The equipment that is utilised during training

If the modules are selected carefully you will be able to tailor make your own course from standard modules. This provides you with a tailor made product at standard prices with proven consistency and quality.

HOW IT WORKS
The basis of all the courses is module I the Height Safety Equipment appreciation and inspection course. This provides all trainees with a solid foundation in safe work at height from which if required they can specialise by carrying on to complete further modules. The course hierarchy chart then shows which modules can be used to enhance the basic module and what qualifcations this will provide you with. In order to progress from one module to the next you must have successfully completed all qualifying modules. This is outlined on each module sheet in the pre course requirements.

CERTIFICATION
The certficate will state which modules have been attained and together with the module sheets will dearly show what your staff are qualified to carry out.

TAILOR MADE COURSES
If you require a course specifically tailored to your requirements then we would suggest that as far as possible you choose standard modules. For additional topics that are not catered for we can create tailor made modules in the same standard format. When integrated with standard modules you are able to get the highest level of consistency and the costs of tailor making is kept to a minimum.
