THE
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
This training brings a unique and refreshing insight into Safety in Design compliance which not only creates a positive understanding and collaboration on design teams, but also reduces risk to practice, project and client.
It gives attendees a practical and professional confidence in the designer's duty under the legislation as well as the limits to that duty. Through examples and process descriptions, attendees will gain a newfound understanding and respect for the requirements and protection within the legislation, so they can communicate and manage their duty positively on any of their projects. As part of this, the legislated Safety in Design requirements will be presented as practical stage-by-stage actions which flows sensibly and easily within the professional design process and the larger project timeline. |
WHO SHOULD ATTEND THIS TRAINING?
This legislation and process training is applicable to all construction industry design professionals - architects, interior designers, engineers, landscape architects and building designers. The case studies included cover various disciplines to enable understanding across the consultants team, however these are currently more heavily weighted towards architects and landscape architects.

EXAMPLES OF WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID
"Excellent overview of how Safety in Design should be applied. Particularly helpful, because you had already thought through and designed solutions, rather than just present information."
I’ll definitely be recommending this training to others, as it breaks down the misinformation that we’ve probably all assumed about how cumbersome the reporting needs to be for our projects. In reality, it looks to be something that can be fairly simply integrated into how we already work and is more about transparency when it comes to safety, instead of ignoring it until we are required/requested to provide a report." "We have for some time been mindful that we needed more than an in-house perspective of the requirements of Safety in Design. The penny didn’t drop however until we spoke to Jennekin and realised we needed professional input. It made sense to arrange for an office presentation where her understanding would assist us towards best practice implementation.” |
