CDM Awareness Training Course Overview

The CDM regulations, or Construction (Design and Management) regulations, are a set of health and safety rules that apply specifically to construction projects. These rules apply to all construction projects, no matter how big or small. This course is designed to help organisations improve health and safety in construction projects, both during the project and for any future work, use, or maintenance of the building or structure. Individuals will gain the ability to eliminate, reduce, or control foreseeable risks that may arise during construction or during the use and maintenance after it has been completed. Holding CDM skills will allow individuals to work on highly paid job posts in various globally recognised enterprises.

In this 1-day Construction Design and Management (CDM) Awareness Training course, delegates will attain in-depth knowledge of the law that applies to the whole construction process on all construction projects. They will understand how to help spot workplace risks and what to do about them. They will learn about making sure health and safety controls are appropriate and increasing the level of commitment to working safely and healthily. Furthermore, delegates will also learn about how clients make suitable arrangements for managing a project, including allocating sufficient time and other resources. Our highly skilled and professional trainer will conduct this training who has years of experience in teaching Health and Safety courses.
