Our 14-day money-back guarantee. If you are not happy with the course, email us within 14 days of your purchase and we will refund you in full. You do not need to give a reason. Your statutory cancellation rights. Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 you normally have 14 days to cancel a distance contract. Because this course is digital content supplied immediately, that statutory right ends once you expressly consent to immediate access and acknowledge that you will lose the withdrawal right — you are asked to confirm both at checkout before the course opens. The guarantee above is offered voluntarily in addition to those rights and does not restrict them.

Everything worth knowing before you enrol.
The course is built on the Confined Spaces Regulations 1997 and the HSE Approved Code of Practice L101. It is awareness-level training, so it is worth confirming with your employer that it meets their requirements before you buy if you are training for a specific job.
No. It gives you the knowledge you need, but entry is only allowed under your employer’s safe system of work, and anyone entering, supervising or rescuing needs practical, site-specific training as well.
There are 20 multiple-choice questions and the pass mark is 16. The answers are marked instantly, and if you do not pass you can review the modules and retake it as many times as you need at no extra charge.
As soon as you pass the assessment. It is issued to your account straight away and you can download it as a PDF.

Yes. The modules and the assessment work on a phone, tablet or computer, and your progress is saved as you go.
Email us within 14 days of your purchase and we will refund you in full. You do not need to give a reason. This is our own guarantee, offered on top of your statutory rights rather than instead of them.
