CITB has a rigorous approach to malpractice, plagiarism and collusion during the SSSTS course online & exam

This ensures fairness for all SSSTS course learners and provides reassurance to the organisations who employ CITB SSSTS qualification holders.

During the online SSSTS course you will be required to:

Show your identification to check you are who you say you are

Show the room you are in to make sure you are alone

During the SSSTS course online exam you are invigilated, this means you are always being observed to ensure you are engaged with the screen and not accessing notes, or receiving any other support

To make sure the online SSSTS courses are carried out correctly CITB silently observes a targeted selection of courses AND scrutinises delegate exam papers. If your RISK tutor or CITB suspects malpractice at any time it will be investigated further. An individuals qualification can be withheld and an entire course could be rejected if found to be acting outside the framework set out by CITB.

It's worth noting that CITB have rejected hundreds of courses, resulting in thousands of individuals having their qualifications withdrawn - so choosing the right training provider, one who is credible and has a proven track record, is essential.

Health and safety law and how it applies to supervisors

Your supervisory responsibilities in controlling site safely

Risk assessments and the need for method statements

Effective site inductions, toolbox talks and method statement briefings

Timely intervention when bad practice is identified
