The notice from CITB is as follows:
"As you are aware following customer feedback we are updating the Site Safety Plus Scheme Rules and associated course appendices for re-release on Monday 7 September.
We would like to draw your attention to the removal of the Grace Period.The grace period for the Site Safety Plus scheme has been removed to bring the scheme in line with other Cskills Awards products. This means the Delegate must be made aware of the certificate expiry date and ensure they attend the refresher course prior to the end date on the certificate.
Any Delegate that does not attend prior to the end date of their certificate will risk their right to attend a refresher course and will be required to attend the full course. Therefore to allow time for this requirement to become embedded, Cskills Awards will continue the current process until 31 December 2015 after which date no registrations will be made that are beyond the end date of the certificate without formal appeal.
The revised Scheme Rules and associated course appendices will be available to download from the Site Safety Plus page on the Cskills Awards website on Monday 7 September 2015."
This means that if you hold an SSPS certificate, and do not renew on time, you will be required to restart your training with another 5 day course.
If you have any questions please contact us on 01392 311 855 , and will be pleased to help you.
