CISRS partners with training firms to offer subsidised CPD courses

ADVERTISEMENT

The Construction Industry Scaffolders Record Scheme (CISRS) has announced it will once again be funding a number of subsidised CPD courses across the UK this Spring and Summer.

CISRS has today told Scaffmag it reached an agreement with a number of training centres across the UK that will enable them to deliver the CPD programme for £50 per delegate.

As a not-for-profit organisation CISRS is always keen to find ways of supporting the sector and feels this is a good use of resources, especially at this difficult time, CISRS said.

The training scheme stated in a press release: “Covid-19 has caused disruption and additional expense to operatives, employers and training centres alike, these subsidised courses are a gesture from CISRS to those who have worked hard to keep the industry going in the last year or so.”

CISRS will waive the usual costs of the delegate training folders and card application fees normally incurred in the delivery of these courses.

They are hoping to offer more in the way of subsidised training later in the year.  The subsidised CPD courses will be held at the following centres:

  • AIS (Aberdeen) 17-18 April
  • AIS (North Shields) 10-11 April
  • CITB Northern Ireland (Crumlin) 13-14 April & 5-6 May
  • Construction College Midlands 14-15 April
  • LTC (Cullompton) 24-25 May
  • LTC (Plymouth) 17-18 June & 22-23 June
  • NCC East (Bircham Newton) Date TBC
  • NCC Scotland (Inchinnan) 12-13 July
  • NCC (Erith) 7-8 June
  • NETA (Stockton) 1-2 June
  • Safety and Access (Nottingham) 28-29 June
  • Safety and Access (Immingham) 7-8 June
  • Simian (Warrington) 10-11 May
  • Simian (Waltham Forest) 8-9 July
  • Simian (Weston Super Mare) 29-30 June
