Recent feedback we've received is as follows...

"Tennyson Suite helps us with every aspect of our health and safety policy - from producing standard working rules which all of our teams are issued with, to helping us understand how new legislation impacts us and our working environments. We are CHAS accredited, so have to meet strict guidelines when it comes to health and safety competence. The Tennyson Suite team undertakes site inspections for us,some of which form 'spot checks' to ensure our policies are being properly adhered to. Bishop and Levett prides itself on its reputation, and Tennyson Suite is a valued partner helping us in our commitment to delivering superior construction quality."

"Tom was very proactive in making recommendations about another Health and Safety Environmental Control Risk Assessment regarding Health and safety at work for employees. He provided me with an assessment and his recommendations, which proved invaluable. John and Tom are both very knowledgeable, proactive, and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend them without hesitation to colleagues and business associates."

Commentary from our course attendees...

"Very informative, good examples and explanations, puts the point over in a clear and firm manner,would recommend to others looking for the right approach and guidance to CDM needs."

"The course provided the training required in a relaxing and fun way. John has excellent presentation skills that demonstrate his wide and passionate knowledge of the subject and the role that safety has for all of us."

"With regard to feedback on the course; as I mentioned during our last session I have received this training in one form or another a number of times and as always I have completed it with a renewed focus on H&S and this time has been no exception.

Whilst we covered the full spectrum of safety aspects during the course, it was your emphasis on early planning of the works and indeed the design, to ensure that construction works can be delivered as safely as possible for all those involved, that particularly struck a chord with me. Whilst I regard myself as reasonably experienced and competent in personally assessing risk and delivering safe systems of work, it was the occasions where we looked at safety issues as a collective, identifying hazards and exploring various options for the mitigation of risk that I will take away as something that I can use to deliver better and more effective H&S solutions on the projects that I manage in the future. I thought the visits that you arranged to various sites (unique in my experience of SMSTS) were a great vehicle to engage in this collective discussion and problem solving.

With regard to any improvements to the delivery of the course, these are limited, but perhaps something that illustrates how (the organisation's) specific processes reflect the legal requirements of CDM Regs, particularly after some confusion was raised during the course as to whether (the organisation's) processes that we deliver to, do indeed meet the requirements of CDM in all aspects."


"As requested some feedback on the SMSTS training course which was undertaken over the past 5 weeks at PNB for (the organisation).

From a personal perspective, by having the 5 day course spilt over 1 day a week over 5 weeks, worked really well.

This was on two fronts, firstly not having to take a whole week out of the business, secondly given me time between each session to complete the homework, read the books and take time to understand / review each session.

The delivery of the course content was very good, it was related to real life experiences from both yourself and other members of the course.

What worked really well, was the opportunity to go to live projects around PNB to support the classroom training.

The combination of classroom and site visits made the content real and easier to understand and we were able to relate this to our day-to-day working environment.

Course venues were good, only one smaller room over the 5 weeks, which was ok.

Training material, books, delegate workbook were all very good and with us now having our own copies for future reference, is a great bonus.

Overall I found the training course and delivery of the content, excellent.

I cannot think of any area that I thought needed to be improved.

The course has refreshed my knowledge and general understanding of responsibilities and accountability of my team and myself, and has highlighted the changes in current and new legislation.

Thank you for your knowledge transfer and professional delivery and keeping us focused on the subject."


"For the purposes of feedback, and I’m sure to echo some of the comments from others taking the SMSTS, Please see notes on the course below:

With this being my first SMSTS course, being able to visit live sites on a daily basis really helped to reinforce the theory that we were studying in the classroom.

Further to this – I found that the amount of theory, group exercises and site visits were very well balanced. Trainer was extremely knowledgeable on the subject matter, and personally coming from the world of O&M – getting to work and study alongside the lovely people in Projects lent perspective towards larger budgeted new works and larger maintenance works that were going on around site.

Having the course scheduled as 5 days over 5 weeks really helped with being able to manage weekly workload, whilst having enough time to complete the homework and digest the course revision.

Particular personal benefit was a more reinforced understanding of CDM responsibilities and our roles with regards to this within the business going forwards.

Once again, many thanks for your time, knowledge and professional delivery of the course content."
