Course Requirements
To attend this course, you must be a candidate who has previously passed the SSSTS course and can provide full evidence of successful attendance. If an individual cannot give a copy of their certificate or locate it on the SSSTS system, they must retake the entire course. Delegates must also be fluent in English at the site supervisor level.
Assessments and Certification
To be certified for this course, a delegate must pass the SSSTS-R examination. This exam, which consists of 25 questions, covers all aspects of the course and has an 80% pass rate (24 out of 30). There are 22 multiple-choice questions and three short-written questions in total. There are typically four safety critical questions, and the candidate must correctly answer them to pass.
The exam lasts 30 minutes, and candidates may use the publication Construction site supervision (GE706) for the final ten minutes. After completion, the exam papers are sent to the CITB for marking. Exam results will be available to delegates as soon as the examination board releases them to Training4Employment, usually within 5 to 7 working days.
Successful candidates will receive a CITB Site Management Safety Training Scheme certificate valid for five years upon completion. Although there is no physical SMSTS card, you may include your SMSTS certificate when applying for a CSCS card.
All delegates will be given their copy of the mandatory publications: Construction site supervision (GE706) and Toolbox talks (GT700), at the start of the course, which they will keep after completing the course.
Retakes
If a delegate scores between 70%-77% in the exam or an 80% pass rate but fails the safety critical questions, they may re-sit the exam. They can do this on the same day or the final day of another course within 90 days. Should the delegate fail to re-sit, they will be offered to retake the SSSTS-R course. When a delegate scores less than 67% in the final exam, they must attend the entire SSSTS-R course again before being allowed to re-sit the exam.
