  • Company Specific Courses

    Company specific courses allow you to incorporate your policies, procedures, forms, permits, or any other relevant information into your training.  This means the training supports your employees ability to apply their new skills when they return to work. Safety 'n Action can deliver training nationwide, however if you require training at your workplace you will need to provide facilities including; training room, air-conditioning/heating, bathroom access, power outlets, tables, chairs, whiteboard, projector screen/white wall, and tea/coffee facilities and any other course specific requirements specified when you book. Please note that travel and accommodation disbursements may apply.

    Alternatively if your workplace is not suitable for training, we have ten fit for purpose training centres available to cater for your training needs.
    If you are interested in booking a Company Specific course please contact us for further information or call us on 0800 222 388.

  • NZQA Unit Standards

    Unit standards are loaded to NZQA seven days after you receive your certificate of competency. This allows time to ensure the student’s name is checked and the unit standards are loaded correctly. Any additional "optional extra" unit standards requested, may incur additional fees.

  • Refresher Information

    To remain compliant with Health and Safety legislation and industry 'good practice' guidelines, students are generally required to refresh their training every 2 years.

    When booking a refresher course, Safety ’n Action will require evidence of the student's NZQA record of achievement displaying the relevant unit standard/s to the course they are attending.
    On successful completion of the course the students Go Safe card will be updated and reissued with a new refresher date. (Please note no unit standards will be uploaded to NZQA)

    If students are unable to provide us with this information, they will need to attend a full course to gain the unit standard/s. Alternatively, if the student has completed prior training and does not hold the applicable NZQA unit standard/s, on request we can provide the student with an attendance certificate only.

  • Safety Gear and Personal Protective Equipment (“PPE”)

    In accordance with the HSWA, all students are required to comply with any instruction, policy or procedures issued by Safety-N Action in relation to the use of Personal Protection Equipment. This includes the wearing of hard hats and safety footwear. Failure to wear the appropriate PPE may mean the student will be asked, in the interest of safety, to leave the course. Should it be necessary for the student to return to complete the course at a later date, Safety-N Action reserves the right to pass on any associated costs to the student or their employer.

  • Student Entry Standards

    All students are required to have a level of written and oral English equivalent to NCEA level 1 (year 11) or IELTS 5.5 or higher, to be eligible to attend one of our courses. The person responsible for making bookings or authorising attendance at the course must agree to these Terms and Conditions prior to acceptance of their student(s) onto the course. Where a student does not meet our English language requirement a reader/writer must be supplied by the student or the person responsible for authorising the student’s attendance. The reader/writer cannot be another student attending the same course.

  • Student Arrivals

    It is ideal for students to be at the training centre or venue, half an hour before the start of the course, to sign in and be ready to start on time. On arrival, they will be welcomed by their trainer and directed to the training room.

    Late student arrival:
    If the student arrives within 60 minutes of the scheduled start time they may remain on course at the trainer’s discretion.
    If the student arrives over 60 minutes past the scheduled start time, the student will need to re-book with our customer service team. Should it be necessary for the student to return to complete the course at a later date due to late arrival, Safety-N Action reserves the right to pass on any associated costs to the student or their employer.

  • Student Results

Certificates and a summary report of competency will then be emailed to the person who made the booking.
