Industrial installations and employers who accept people who have completed the National Safety Passport computer based training program have now got further assurance that their people have the knowledge and expertise to act in a safe manner in a high hazard environment.

The National Safety Passport e-learning program producted by Cognition Media has been bestowed endorsement from Teesside University.

“Teesside University is concerned that all graduates going out into the process industries and associated supply chain have adequate training in health and safety, not only for their own well-being but as managers and professional engineers, setting the standards of practice for other employees” said Dr. Paul Shelton, Assistant Dean for Education Partnerships in the School of Science and Engineering. “We fully endorse the National Safety Passport as an essential step in ensuring that our graduates are equipped to become health and safety ambassadors in the workplace.”

This honour demonstrated the National Safety Passport’s position academically as well as professionally further showing the high quality training in industrial health and safety that is delivered.

The program is completely portable allowing candidates to manage the course around their other duties. No more need for loss of working time, travelling or overnight costs; a no brainer in the present economic climate.

The huge cost savings to the industry make the National Safety Passport a popular alternative to more traditional classroom based passport schemes and recognition from both EMSS and now Teesside University further prove the high quality of training that accompanies the cost savings. At a price of £69.99 (ex VAT per unit) the e-learning program includes the nationally recognised EMSS Safety Passport card which can be validated online for authenticity. This will surpass employer’s compulsory need to deliver safety, health and environment (SHE) training with cost savings over those associated with currently established schemes based in the classroom.

The training has been demonstrated to hold the attention of the candidate and improve knowledge retention while making the learning a more enjoyable experience. Feedback from both trainees and management has been absolutely positive.

The impressive financial savings to the industry make the National Safety Passport a popular alternative to more traditional classroom based passport schemes and recognition from both EMSS and now Teesside University further prove the high quality of training that accompanies the cost savings.
