Membership FAQs
Becoming a member of the School is easy. Sign up via the quick registration form and get automatic access to the CPD-accredited resources available in our online library; as well as bespoke assessment tools and hundreds of free training sessions.
Everyone who joins the School will automatically be given a personal account, from which you will be able to manage your own learning, undertake personal assessments and download your CPD certificates of activity.
Users can be linked into a company account, which consolidates all users from a company into one place and allows cumulative activity and progress to be saved in one area. This allows users to undertake their own learning journey and collect CPD points, whilst also contributing to their company’s engagement and level of membership with the School.
For example, if Joe Bloggs Scaffolding employs ten people, all of whom are registered with the School, each of these ten users will have access to their own personal accounts, as well as the ability to access and view the Joe Bloggs Scaffolding company account.
