Course Description
The SSSTS is a two-day CITB-accredited course for site supervisors, team leaders, foremen and first-line managers working in construction, civil engineering and the built environment. It provides a thorough grounding in health and safety law, supervisory responsibilities and the practical skills needed to manage a safe site.
Endorsed by Build UK as the recognised standard for supervisors on UK construction sites, it’s the qualification your clients will ask for and the one your team needs to do the job properly.
The certificate is valid for five years and renewable via a one-day SSSTS Refresher course.

Course Dates and Booking
Upon completion of the course
- A CITB Site Safety Plus SSSTS Certificate, valid for five years
To maintain certification, delegates must complete the one-day SSSTS Refresher before their certificate expires. Failure to do so requires retaking the full two-day course. For those looking to progress further, the five-day Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) is the natural next step.
