In Aotearoa, plenty of training providers offer US 30265 as a quick 4-8 hour tick box course, often remote, self paced and without any real guidance. The problem? Learners finish without truly understanding how to apply the process in their workplace, or feeling confident enough to complete a risk assessment on their own.
At Elite Safety Training, we do it differently. Our programme is hands on, guided by qualified trainers, and contextualised to your actual job role. You won’t just “pass” the unit – you’ll leave with the skills, confidence, helpful resources, and practical experience to assess risks in the real world. You also walk away with a fully completed risk assessment, that you use as your own good practice guide! And the best part? Your trainer and assessor is also a qualified H & S Consultant, so you can trust we know our stuff!

There are no formal prerequisites for this training programme. However, to complete your practical assessment, you must be working in a workplace where you can bring a real job, example, or site from your workplace to the workshop. This ensures your learning is directly applied to your role and workplace environment.
