Our CITB-accredited two-day SSSTS course in Reading is aimed at supervisors, foremen, team leaders, and anyone responsible for managing a team.
Since COVID-19, we've shifted to delivering our SSSTS course in Reading online via Zoom. The feedback has been fantastic, and the online option has become the most popular choice, thanks to its easy setup, minimal tech requirements, and lower cost compared to classroom sessions.
This CITB course provides you with the knowledge and skills required to ensure a safe work environment, understand legal obligations, and manage health and safety effectively on a construction site.
By the end of this SSSTS training in Reading, you will be able to:
Applicants for the SSSTS course must be able to read, write, and understand English at a good level.
A valid ID, such as a passport or driving licence, must be presented on the first day of the course.
The SSSTS course assessment consists of a 30-minute exam with 22 multiple-choice questions and three short written questions. Each exam paper includes four safety critical questions, all of which must be answered correctly to pass.
To pass the exam, you need to achieve 80% (24 out of 30).
You can use your course books and notes in the final 10 minutes to aid your answers.
Stressed about the exams? Don’t worry! They’re straightforward, and we provide free mock exams and a study guide to boost your chances of passing.
Candidates who complete the SSSTS course will be awarded a CITB Site Supervision Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) digital certificate, issued within 2-3 weeks.
Refresher training is required every five years before your SSSTS certificate expires. To book your refresher course or get more information, visit our SSSTS Refresher course page.
The SSSTS course is offered in two formats: face-to-face at one of our training centres or online via Zoom or Microsoft Teams, taught by a CITB-approved instructor.
Since COVID-19, many have preferred the online option. Here’s why:
In addition to the SSSTS course, various other CITB Site Safety Plus courses are available in Reading. These include:
Want to cut down on training costs? Construction industry employers can benefit from grants designed to help workers stay up-to-date with Health & Safety standards.
CITB offers grants to construction employers for training workers and maintaining health and safety standards on-site. Employers can claim up to £140 for this course, subject to CITB's approval.
To access CITB funding, ensure your delegate has your Company Name, Registered Address, and CITB Levy number. These details must be provided by the student during their class on the course registration form.
After the course is completed, CITB will process the grant directly with the registered company using the provided details.
The cost of the SSSTS course depends on the location and provider, generally ranging between £220 and £330. For a more affordable option, consider booking the SSSTS online course. It offers the same 2-day instructor-led training, but delivered via Zoom, and is typically £30-£60 cheaper.
The SSSTS course is fairly straightforward to pass; you’ll need to achieve 80% or higher. In the last 10 minutes of the exam, you can refer to your notes and books for help. With a 98% first-time pass rate, rest assured that your instructor will equip you with everything you need to succeed.
Yes, you can complete the SSSTS course in two days by attending an online class with your tutor via Zoom or Microsoft Teams.
No, CITB does not issue cards. Instead, upon completing your SSSTS course, you will receive a CITB-issued certificate.
Your SSSTS certificate will be valid for five years. After that period, you’ll need to take a one-day refresher course to renew it. If you miss the renewal window, you will need to retake the full course.
No, an SSSTS certificate on its own won’t qualify you for a CSCS card. However, it’s a useful qualification that complements the gold CSCS card, both of which are often required for UK site supervisors.
