Hi Jackson This topic was discussed a few days ago but not in this context. My suggestion would be to build a refresher programme based upon the MS programme but rather than as a specific yearly period I would consider twice a year @ no more than 1 day and use critical changes to referenced legislation and important Case Studies. A change of post would also trigger a "refresher" to cater for any new skills/competence/knowledge required. For instance; at the end of 2013 I would have provided an update on RIDDOR, MHSW, and ACoPs baed upon what's in the MS syllabus. That way the "refresher" will always be new & different rather than the same tedious [and boring] repeats that everyone already knows. Hope that helps Frank Hallett

OK Jackson - I understand. How you proceed will depend on a range of variables; there a couple of good e-learning programmes that you could use to get your managers up-to-scratch and then build on that for the future. Frank Hallett
