Yes — for those seeking a flexible alternative, the Safety Harness Training is also available as an online course. You’ll learn the same key principles as in the classroom version, including how to fit and inspect harnesses and respond to fall-related incidents.
This option is ideal if you prefer to learn remotely or need to complete the course on your own schedule without attending a physical training centre.
What Certification Will You Receive After the Training?
Once you successfully complete the training, you'll be awarded a recognised certificate that demonstrates your ability to use a safety harness safely and in accordance with UK site safety standards.
This qualification remains valid for three years. To keep your knowledge up to date and remain compliant, a refresher will be required at the end of that period.
