About the course
The SPA Health & Safety Core Day is a one-day training course delivered live online via Microsoft Teams or through classroom training. Priced at £154.00 including VAT, it provides essential health and safety knowledge for anyone working in environments where safety is a priority.
We run the course regularly throughout the year, with additional dates and group bookings available on request.
Developed by the Safety Pass Alliance (SPA), this nationally recognised course is suitable for people across a wide range of industries, including construction, engineering, manufacturing, utilities and electrical work.
For those looking to obtain an ECS Labourer Card, the SPA Core Day helps meet the health and safety requirement for eligible applications, making it one of the quickest recognised routes into the electrical industry.
By the end of the day, you will have the knowledge and confidence to recognise workplace hazards and work safely in a variety of environments.
After successfully completing the course, you will receive the SPA Health & Safety Passport, a nationally recognised qualification that demonstrates your health and safety awareness.
For candidates applying for or renewing an ECS Labourer Card, the SPA Passport can support the health and safety requirement, subject to current ECS eligibility criteria.
