New training and webinar to equip industry on new CDM regulations

The Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) has launched a new training series for professionals with a responsibility for health and safety.

The training will provide those working in design and management roles in construction the skills and knowledge needed to comply with the incoming 2015 CDM regulations update.  By October this year, it will be a legal requirement for all organisations to use the new regulations, so it is vital that health and safety professionals have the skills they need to be ready for the deadline. The updated regulations come into force on 6 April.

Delivered by industry experts, the training courses will provide guidance to help organisations and their project teams achieve a smooth transition from CDM 2007 and maintain the highest standards of health and safety.

There are courses tailored to meet different levels and specialities – some offer a broad overview of the key 2015 changes, while others focus on specifics such as the roles and responsibilities of the client,  the principal designer and designer , or the links between the new regulations and accepted project management principles.

The courses will run from April 2015, but can be booked now.

ICE will also be holding a free webinar on 13 April, called: 10 things you need to know about CDM 2015.

Hosted by members of ICE’s health and safety panel, the webinar will provide a snapshot of the changes and an overview of how they will affect construction and design companies.
