Course Validity Changes from 01/01/2023
We are currently updating and reviewing our course content, evaluations, and the delivery methods of our training courses.
Over the years we have consistently delivered high quality training, utilising the very latest methods and technologies in an efficient and competitive manner. As we move into 2023, over two decades after we began, we are again looking to make further improvements to ensure you continue to receive the best quality service the industry has to offer.
As you will be aware, Kingfisher Access is an established provider of a wide variety of accredited courses throughout the UK. We work closely with accrediting bodies and associations such as PASMA IPAF, CITB, City & Guilds and ITTSAR, which have at times made up the majority of our training portfolio. In the past, Kingfisher Access’s non-accredited courses have paralleled those of the accrediting bodies, not only in terms of the content and style of delivery but in the length of time the certificate is valid for.
However, it is important we recognise the changes within the industry and align ourselves with other Health and Safety professionals working in construction and beyond. Therefore, as of January 1st 2023 all Kingfisher Access’s non-accredited course certificates will be valid for three years. This change also ensures your staff receive the regular training that is necessary for them to remain competent.
