We like to keep it simple. You can either purchase individual licences online or if you have a number of users or courses that you require then we can simply invoice you for the licences and offer bespoke pricing depending on the requirement.


Do I need to install anything?

No. The Positive Protect system runs on any modern standard compliant browser.


Do you offer discounts?

Yes. Contact us if you require more than 10 users or courses. Our system allows a manager to configure individual user accounts and allocate courses to them.

 

Can I add additional team members later?

Yes. You can add additional users at any time. 

 

Can I do the online health and safety training on tablets and mobile phones?

Yes you can! Our online training system is fully mobile responsive and will work on any portable device. 


I am self-employed and I need training just for myself, can I do this with Positive Protect?

Of course! Sign up to the “Single user option”, create an account, Select the course you need, pay using the secure online payment system and start the training. It is that simple.


I work all sorts of shifts during the day and night, I can’t complete the training course in one go. What should I do?

Our online training courses track your progress as you move through the courses. At any point you stop the course or leave the training, the next time you login it will take you back to where you left off, so that you don't waste time.  


Do I have an unlimited time to complete the health and safety training online?

No, unfortunately not. However, we do understand that people are busy at work and we do allow the user 12 months to complete the training course from the date of being assigned. The Positive Protect platform automatically notifies you at regular intervals with information on how much longer you have before the course expires. 


I don’t have enough time to keep hassling my staff to do their online training, what can be done to help me?

Yes, this can be an issue with other online training providers. However, Positive Protects online training system will take these time-consuming tasks on for you. Monthly reminders are sent to each user, reminding them to complete the training. In the final month, before the course expires, the system will send a further 3 reminders - 30 days; 7 days; 24 hours.


How do I keep tabs on all my staff that are doing their health and safety training online?

This is easily achieved with the Positive Protect online training portal. With a click of a button you as a manager can see  at which stage each individual user is on each course; Whether the user has “Not started”, “Started“ or “Completed their online training"; how many days are left before the course expires. You have access to a printable 10-year certificate history and can view all exam results taken by your users, whether they passed or failed. In other words, as well as monitoring progress, the Positive Protect system also keeps your records for you - saving you considerable time.


How do I know that this online training is compliant and correct for my company and employees?

Positive Protects online training courses have been written by qualified experts in their specific fields of profession within health and safety. Positive Protect follow a very strict design audit process to ensure that our courses provide correct and accurate information.  In addition to this, Positive Protect have had all training courses assessed by the IIRSM and CPD as an external recognised and approved standard you can trust. All our online training courses follow the appropriate regulations and legislation set by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).


Why should I consider using Positive Protects online training over more traditional face to face training?

It saves you and your business unnecessary time and financial costs. Instead of the logistical hassles of sending staff to the classroom for entire days you can train in-house with far greater flexibility. Remote workers can carry out the health and safety training online away from the office. Our training courses follow the same curriculum as face to face trainers and cover the same important principles and regulations of each course topic.
