CISRS Offers Subsidised CPD Courses for Autumn/Winter 2023

ADVERTISEMENT

In collaboration with multiple scaffolding training centres, CISRS is set to offer heavily subsidised CPD courses across the UK.

The Construction Industry Scaffolders Record Scheme (CISRS) has announced a second series of subsidised Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses for Autumn/Winter 2023. This initiative, undertaken with the backing of several CISRS-accredited training centres, is aimed at providing affordable access to CPD courses for scaffolders and employers across the United Kingdom.

Thanks to CISRS’s funding, the participating training centres will offer the courses at a nominal fee of £50 per delegate, marking significant savings for both employers and scaffolders alike. 

This initiative underscores CISRS’s commitment to fostering education and skills development within the scaffolding sector while easing the financial burden on professionals and companies.

Since the inception of the subsidised CPD initiative, CISRS and the associated training centres have rolled out over 120 subsidised courses. These efforts represent a total reinvestment exceeding £450,000 in the industry’s human capital.

This year, CISRS has expressed its gratitude towards the training centres for their continual support and collaboration in this significant initiative. These centres remain dedicated to bolstering the programme and ensuring its ongoing success.
