Posted By Des Daly I have been asked to provide Risk Assessment training for our managers and supervisers. It seems to me that I can go to numerous external training organisations offering 1 day risk assessment courses for about £90 per person. As usual the directors have said " That's too expensive, why can't you provide the training? After all we paid for your NEBOSH Diplomas and thought you could do everything". I wearily replied that although I do train, my trainig skills do not extend to all things. Does anyone know of a 'Train the Trainer course that I could suggest I be sent on?

Posted By Paul Craythorne Des, If you can't get on a course in a reasonable time and you need to get the training done soon then I have a friend who is a self employed consultant and would charge you a flat day rate for up to about 10-12 delegates. Don't quote me but I think this could be between £250 and £300 per day. Alternatively, I occassionally do freelance work and would be happy to help you out at a reasonable rate. E-mail me direct by clicking on my name at the top of this response if you want further information. Regards, Paul
