<h2>Course Details</h2>Overview of the CITB SSSTS Course
The CITB Site supervision safety training scheme (SSSTS) course is designed for those who have, or are about to acquire, supervisory responsibilities. The course covers all relevant legislation and other aspects which affect safe working in the building, construction and civil engineering industries. It highlights the need for risk assessment in the workplace, the implementation of the necessary control measures, and adequate communication to sustain a health and safety culture among the workforce. 

Entry requirements
Delegates should hold, or be about to hold, the role of a supervisor. Delegates must be competent in English at site supervisor level. 

Assessment
Assessment will be by an end of course examination and the trainer review. 

The examination paper is compulsory and consists of 25 questions, selected by CITB, covering all aspects of the course. The examination pass mark is 80% (24 out of 30). The paper consists of 22 multiple choice questions and three short written questions. There are four safety critical questions in each exam paper. The delegate must answer all four of these questions correctly to pass the exam. The multiple-choice questions are worth 1 point each, whereas written questions can score between 1-3 marks. 

Delegates will need to pass all three elements of the trainer review to gain a pass. 
The three elements of the trainer review are as follows: 
Exercise - overall, thinking about the delegate's performance in the group exercise, did they work well as part of the team?
Has the delegate actively engaged with the course and the group? 
Has the learner completed the toolbox talk?
All three elements will be either a pass (yes) or fail (no) and all three elements will need to achieve a pass for the delegate to pass this element of the course. 

Length of Course
This is a two-day course. Delegates are required to complete the full course (15 hours) to be eligible for certification. 

A natural progression from this course would be to attend the Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) course.
