CBR City & Guilds Assured Temporary Works General Awareness One Day Programme

This innovative 1 day course is designed to provide an overview and appreciation of this often contentious area of construction activity. It is suitable for company directors, H&S consultants,  builders and specialist contractors, utilities, civil engineering contractors, supervisors, graduates and site engineers wishing to gain knowledge in the field of temporary works and construction method engineering.

The course is based on Section 2 Procedural control of temporary works of BS 5975:2019 and includes an in depth review of current legislation, relevant codes of practice and available best practice guidance in the industry. Detailed, well designed course handouts are issued to delegates, however structural calculations do not form part of the program.
