Keeping supervisory knowledge sharp matters as much as gaining it in the first place, and the CITB SSSTS Refresher Course brings supervisors up to date before their SSSTS certificate expires. Delivered in a single day, it revisits the core supervisory content while adding current industry issues and best practice updates that have emerged since initial certification. Only delegates who have passed the two-day CITB SSSTS Course, or a previous one-day SSSTS Refresher Course within the last five years, are eligible to attend.
Since fire risks and emergency procedures feature prominently in this refresher, supervisors on higher-risk sites often pair it with a dedicated Fire Marshal Course, building on the awareness covered here with more detailed emergency response training. Supervisors due for renewal alongside their site managers frequently book this course at the same time as the CITB SMSTS Refresher Course, keeping every level of site leadership current together.
Because manual handling and working at height remain two of the most common causes of site injury, this refresher also touches on both areas, making it a natural companion to the Manual Handling Online Course and Working at Height Training for supervisors wanting a fuller refresh across the board.
A good standard of spoken and written English is also necessary to complete the course successfully.
