CDM & Building Safety Act Training Course

This unique 2 Day course combines both the 1 Day APS Accredited CDM Awareness course and 1 Day APS Accredited BSA & Building Regulations (England) Dutyholder Introduction Course.

These accredited courses run over 2 days will provide attendees with duties or functions under both sets of Primary Legislation with the foundation knowledge for the 2 distinct but, joint duties.

The courses run consecutively to help untangle the confusion within the terminology such that potential dutyholders know those differences and, how to entwine them to discharge duties individually or combined.

A combined course will enable attendees to gain knowledge to add to their current levels of SKE&B of both sets of legislation in a way that provides synergy for their projects.

CDM Awareness – Day 1

This course gives an overview (introduction) to the requirements for Clients, Principal Designers, Principal Contractors, Contractors, Designers and Workers, and how the regulations apply to construction projects in general under the Primary Legislation (The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974).

A PDCDM must have an awareness of all duties under the regulations in order to plan, manage, monitor and coordinate H&S in the Pre-Construction Phase of a Project. This enables them to have a holistic approach to discharging their specific duties.

This one day course does exactly that. Whilst there is not time, in one day, to look at all the detail, there is time to provide guidance on where else to look depending on your own level of SKE&B and where further reading or CPD might benefit you as a dutyholder. The course does focus on the CDMPD dutyholder role as a central requirement to a more complete understanding of the overall approach to application of CDM2015.

Day 2 – BSA & Building Regulations (England) Dutyholder Introduction 

This course relating the Building Safety Act 2022 (BSA) provides an introduction and overview to the primary legislation including the BSA and Building Act 1984 (BA) in general and the secondary legislation, predominantly, the Building Regulations (BRegs), more specifically.
