<p>Health and safety awareness training is mandatory for staff at all levels of an organisation. This is the ideal course to satisfy that requirement - a stimulating 'entry-level' programme explaining how health and safety should be managed in any working environment.</p><p>The course outlines the basics of health and safety law and how organisations and individuals can become liable for health and safety offences. Roles and responsibilities for health and safety are discussed by reference to the key legislation and the expert trainer will explore with the delegates how these responsibilities are managed in practice in different types of organisation. The principles of risk assessment will be considered and their practical implementation discussed in relation to the management of the various hazards that are likely to be present in a typical workplace.</p>This course will give staff:<ul><li>An understanding of health and safety law, liability and enforcement</li><li>An explanation of the principles of health and safety management in the workplace and an understanding of who should be responsible for different aspects of health and safety</li><li>A practical explanation of risk assessment and what constitutes a suitable and sufficient assessment</li><li>A broad knowledge of the typical hazards in a workplace and how these should be managed</li></ul><section>

<p>Masterclasses? Refreshers? Introductions?</p><p>It depends what you're looking for and where you want to pitch them, but here are six tried-and-tested highly focused sessions that organisations can take individually or as a series, to help develop their teams' project management capabilities one topic at a time.</p>Objectives for each individual session are set out below, as part of the session outlines.<p>Taken together, as a series, however, these modules are an ideal opportunity to develop your team's levels of project management capability maturity, whether that's by introducing them to the basic principles, refreshing them on best practice, or giving them the opportunity to really drill down into a specific area of challenge in your particular operating environment.</p><section>

Successfully managing smaller projects (In-House)

<p>R&amp;D work is often carried out in entrepreneurial companies with the aim of developing solutions to scientific or technological problems for a wide range of customers. Projects can include longer term 'frontiers of science' research, medium term product development/manufacturing or more immediate troubleshooting or contract research assignments.</p><p>In all these contexts, the ability to create innovative solutions in a timely and cost-effective manner is the essence of successful R&amp;D. Whilst R&amp;D groups typically excel in technical expertise, those involved often recognise that there is scope for improving the way that projects are managed. The aim of this training programme is to address this need whilst ensuring that the creative, entrepreneurial spirit that is fundamental to good R&amp;D continues to flourish.</p><section>

<p>Reliability Centred Maintenance (RCM) is commonly used to help establish safe minimum levels of maintenance, determine changes to operating procedures and help establish maintenance regimes and plans. Successful implementation can result in cost savings, machine uptime and improved risk management. But the devil's in the detail - how can you achieve these benefits and successfully implement RCM in your organisation? This programme will help you do just that.</p><p>Note: this is a purely indicative outline. The content, duration, objectives and material used can all be adapted to match your specific requirements.</p>To provide a better understanding of RCM, particularly:<ul><li>What, why, how and who?</li><li>Opportunities and benefits</li><li>Risks</li><li>Cost effectiveness</li></ul><section>
