Courses
Finn Safety Training is proud to be an approved training provider for the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) and the Royal Life Saving Society (RLSS UK), delivering accredited workplace safety and first aid courses flexibly, either in-person, or via virtual classroom or blended settings.
We understand the importance of balancing the need for training to maintain compliance and improve safety outcomes, with the time commitments and operating costs it places on the business. We strongly believe in making safety training both accessible and affordable, so our training offer is designed with flexibility in mind, to suit your individual and business needs. We focus on a range of accredited one, two and three day training courses that equip you with the skills and confidence you need for strong safety outcomes.
All courses can be taken face to face, in a classroom setting. We provide the venue for public courses, or for large enough private groups, we can also come to your site. For IOSH courses, in addition to the in-person classroom offer, we can also offer full online delivery via a 'Virtual Classroom' setting. For the majority of our first aid courses (with the exception of Emergency Paediatric First Aid), learners can choose between the full classroom setting, or undertaking training via blended learning. This offers combined e-learning via the RLSS UK platform, prior to classroom-based practical assessments. It is designed to enable learners to undertake the e-learning in their own time, reducing the hours required to attend in person for the practical elements.
