Changes to H.S.E Approval

The Health and Safety Executive (H.S.E) will stop approving first aid companies and qualifications later this year and a new set of arrangements look likley to take effect from October 2013.

In light of these changes ICS will be offering new OFQUAL first aid qualifications alongside our H.S.E courses from April 2013. These new courses will be in line with the current H.S.E syllabus. Employers and the H.S.E have a high level of confidence in OFQUAL regulated qualifications and so our new courses will be accredited using this Government approved and nationally recognised system assuring you of our continued committment to delivering quality training.
