How long is the certificate valid for?
The certificate doesn't yet have a specific expiry date. However, HRSC will be looking at implementing a requirement for ongoing staff training and ensuring that everyone is up to date. That may involve you taking the course again at regular intervals, or completing other relevant safeguarding training. Please check with us or other organisations for their details.

We are offering all of our instructors the course at a reduced price of £7.50 if you sign up before the end of March. Usually we would be charging £10 to our members & £15 to non members.
