A senior director has shown interest in our long term plan of implementing OHSAS 18001. He has recommended that I source him an awareness course (hopefully with a reputable provider).
There are lots of these courses out there but my fear is that I will end up with a rebranded 9001:2000 course. For obvious reasons I would prefer the advice of an Health & Safety professional here.
I am struggling to find a 'one day' course. I would be grateful for emailed details of any recommended courses that they have attended(preferably in the north). Any information will be much appreciated as I need to strike whilst the iron is hot.

Are you looking for an open course for one director to attend or something in-house for a group?
Cheers

As Steve has suggested you could try BSi, Lloyds Register, DNV etc.

Thanks.
The prices are a little daunting but the word 'cheap' wasn't in my original email so that was my fault.
Have any of you attended these courses? I have seen them on the net, but I need to know whether they are worth it from a qulaity point of view.
Thanks again

Hi Lyndon
I can send you both 18001 and 18002 standards so that they may get an understanding of a management system.
Just email me,
regards,
Julide

Thanks for your offer, but I have already got copies of the standards.
I may now have resolved this issue. A training provider from a main 'engineering' trade body has offered to put me together a 18001/14001 awareness course (price permitting).
I do know that BSI provide courses, but I needed to know (from previous attendees) if people considered their courses to be of value.
I have previous experience of this type of course. I did not want the training provider to just get out the spec and read it out parrot fashion it as we could do that ourselves.
Thanks again

Bit of a funny attitude to someone posing a rhetorical question, especially as you initiated the thread asking for assistance.

Here we go.
I am sorry for confusing you with my original query. I didn't intend it to be rhetorical.
I now regret posting the question in this section, it may have been more suited to the study support section. Although, I am nonetheless greatful for the people who have posted on here, offering me assistance.
