British Safety was very helpful with me issues at the time of doing my course. They managed to get it resolve very quickly so I can continue with course.

I enjoyed the on-line course very much. It was very well composed and organised, clearly expressed, with rich content and easy to use and navigate - I expected a little bit more elaboration on safety signs. I enjoyed the cheeky-ness in the questions in the quick tests-quizzes :inviting to pay more attention to a next session. I learnt a lot of new stuff and helped me clarify stuff I already knew. I didn't really know how to use the virtual session on identifying hazards in several work places: it was too imaginative for me and lost lots of lives trying to work it out... Overall it is a great course and I am very happy I attended (and passed) it. Thank you
Trustpilot
Great customer service throughout the process. Booking the course was easy, the content was informative and delivered well. Booking the exam was simple through the customer service team. Would definitely recommend and I will be using them again.
Trustpilot
very well run and easy to use
Trustpilot
Good course, learnt alot.
Trustpilot
The process was exacting, comprehensive and thorough, but nonetheless it was a fair process. It was made very clear what to do at each stage, and all of the information needed to respond appropriately was provided during the course. The only slight criticism I have is that the need to complete a second stage, involving a specific project example, wasn't made as obvious as it could have been.
