Scaffold training provider Safety and Access has achieved a significant milestone by obtaining the Construction Industry Scaffolders Record Scheme (CISRS) accreditation for its state-of-the-art training centre in Earlsfield, London.

The CISRS, known for its stringent assessment process, is an industry-respected body that ensures facilities maintain the highest standards in both quality and safety. Achieving this accreditation indicates that Safety and Access have met these rigorous benchmarks.

The Earlsfield training centre is strategically located in London, providing easy access for learners. Situated just one stop from Clapham Junction and directly connected to Waterloo via Earlsfield station, the centre’s location makes it convenient for participants across London.

Designed to accommodate a range of training needs, from beginners to advanced practitioners, the facility boasts expansive classrooms and hands-on practical areas. Current courses on offer include:

    CISRS COTS

    CISRS SCAFFOLD REFRESHER/CPD

    CISRS BASIC SCAFFOLD INSPECTION

    CISRS ADVANCED SCAFFOLD INSPECTION

    CISRS SCAFFOLDING AWARENESS

George Gilbert, General Manager of Safety and Access, commented on the achievement, “The CISRS accreditation for our Earlsfield centre reinforces our commitment to maintaining and delivering the highest standards in scaffold training. With established centres in Nottingham and Humberside, our London facility further positions us to serve the needs of professionals in the field.”

This development is seen as a reflection of Safety and Access’s ongoing endeavour to lead in scaffold training. As the construction industry undergoes constant evolution, training centres like these play a crucial role in ensuring professionals are equipped with the necessary skills to navigate the industry’s challenges.
