This helps to maintain health & safety standards on construction sites, keeping the right skills available for the industry to grow. In turn this will allow projects to be completed on time and within budget, in a safe and sustainable manner. How much is the Grant? The grant rates are split into three tiers, determined by the duration and content of the course. •Tier 1 = £30 •Tier 2 = £70 •Tier 3 = £120 Course Name Grant TierValueIPAF (Dual) Mobile Vertical (3a) + (3b) Mobile Boom - Operator Tier 2£70IPAF Harness Use and Inspection Tier 1£30PASMA Mobile Access Towers for Users Tier 2£70Ladder and Stepladder User - Ladder Association Tier 1£30Ladder and Stepladder Inspection - Ladder Association Tier 1£30Site Management Safety Training Scheme (SMSTS) Tier 3£120Site Management Safety Training Scheme Refresher (SMSTS) Tier 3 - 50%£60Site Supervisors Safety Training Scheme (SSSTS) Tier 2£70Site Supervisors Safety Training Scheme Refresher (SSSTS) Tier 2 - 50%£35Site Safety Plus - Health & Safety Awareness Tier 1£30 Please refer to the Approved Course List on CITB’s website for the full course directory.
