Great #constructionindustry news from our #CISRS #training provider friends – 3B Training 📰 3B Training and The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) Collaborate to Deliver CITB Accredited Courses at London Office 🏢 3B Training, a leading provider of health and safety training, is pleased to announce its expansion in London with the introduction of CITB accredited courses at The Chartered Institute of Building's (CIOB) office. By working together, they aim to enhance access to high-quality training courses for construction industry professionals in the heart of London. With this collaboration, 3B Training brings its expertise in delivering comprehensive and industry-relevant courses to the esteemed facilities of the CIOB. The courses available will include SSSTS, SMSTS, Health and Safety Awareness, Temporary Works Supervisor, Temporary Works Coordinator and more. These courses are fully accredited by the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), ensuring delegates receive training that meets the highest standards of excellence and industry recognition. "We’re excited to launch CITB accredited courses at The Chartered Institute of Building's prestigious office in London." said Mathew Bewley, Managing Director of 3B Training. "Opening a new training venue in the South of England was always in 3B Training’s growth plan, but to be working with the CIOB and their Academy Director, Adrian Montague, is a very exciting step and reflects our commitment to providing top-notch training courses to individuals and organisations in the construction sector. By offering these accredited courses at a central location in London, we aim to make professional development more accessible and convenient for industry professionals." The range of CITB accredited courses offered by 3B Training covers a wide spectrum of topics crucial to the construction industry. These courses are designed to equip delegates with the knowledge, skills, and certifications necessary to thrive in today's competitive construction industry. "This is a very exciting first step in our relationship." said Adrian Montague, CIOB Academy Director. "I met Mathew and some of his team a few months ago which led to a discussion about how 3B Training and the CIOB could work more closely together. Both organisations operate in the built environment sector but offer complimentary rather than competitive services. Mathew approached me about the academy and the training we offer, and by working together we felt it would only benefit the industry. We have a fantastic space here in London and it’s great to see that it will be used to deliver training courses to the construction sector. No doubt there will be other things we collaborate on.” Please visit www.3btraining.com where you can book online 👨🏻💻

As Electra approach our upcoming LPI (Learning and Performance Institute) accreditation, Donna McWilliams takes the time to reflect on what this process means for us at Electra, and for her personally. The LPI (Learning and Performance Institute) is a global body dedicated to raising the standards of workplace learning and development. Over the years, the accreditation process has evolved significantly, adapting to new industry standards and expectations. For us, it's more than just a certification—it's an opportunity to reflect, take stock, and continuously improve. Read all about the process in the article below: https://lnkd.in/e4MhsAmV

Why do we bother paying for training events? Seriously, I mean it. No matter how great the training event is, how engaging the instructor, or how much fun everyone has during the activities, everyone will forget 70% of it within a couple of days. (Don't believe me? Check out the Ebbinghaus curve) Training is so unbelievably inefficient that it is really difficult to justify paying for it. And yes, I realise how crazy this sounds given the fact a big proportion of my income is from delivering training. What can be done about it? Well, one option is to include some form of continued learning after the main training event is done. Reinforce the training and support learners as they apply what they have been taught. The Association for Talent Development happens to agree with me on this - which is why they have published my article on creating and using post training calendars in the June edition of the Training Development magazine. If you'd like to improve the training you give, or the training you receive from instructors, check out the article and see how you can get more than 30% from your training.

Outdoor education guidance - the basics of good practice. "Good practice does not guarantee safety or success, but it does make them more likely." “Good practice, in terms of what happens on any particular visit can be quite subjective, because it depends so much on the aims and the context” begins the OEAP NG guidance document 4.3a Good Practice Basics. However, by looking at how outdoor learning and off-site visits are planned, managed and supervised, it is easier to identify what good practice looks like. “Good practice is fundamentally about getting the right leaders doing the right activities with the right participants in the right places at the right times.” Have straightforward and practical employer and establishment policies, focused on enabling safe, high quality learning, says the valuable free to download, print and use PDF guidance document. Such policies should encourage all staff to engage with outdoor learning and off-site visits and include standard operating procedures to facilitate regular activities and visits happening as a matter of routine. “Ensure that effective systems are in place, with competent people in key roles, so that outdoor learning and off-site visits are managed effectively and without unnecessary red tape.” The document cross-references with a number of other useful OEAP NG documents that will also prove to be invaluable – in particular for assistant leaders, EVCs, heads and managers, outdoor education advisers and visit leaders. #oeapng #outdooreducation https://lnkd.in/gRm5Bk4T
