Your Responsibilities

Your responsibilities – please read carefully before you apply for training courses

• Book early to get the course of your choice. Bookings are taken on a first come first served basis.
• The courses are described in as much detail as possible, please ensure the course is the right level for you by checking the stated level and aims of the day.
• If you cannot attend the course and you have booked the place at a reduced rate (because you are a PVI staff member) please contact the system administrator so as the place can be re-allocated or you risk being invoiced the £25 non-attendance fee.
• Double check your availability, most cancellations are due to candidates double booking themselves. If you find out last minute that you are unable to attend, can someone else from your setting make the most of the booking that has been made – please contact the booking system administrator by following the email link providing relevant information so that your place can be cancelled.  Refunds are not given but you are welcome to allocate an alternative staff member to the place.
• If you have any dietary or access or learning requirements please inform us on the pre-course questionnaire that you will be asked to complete to ensure your needs are met.
• Plan ahead, book your staff cover in plenty of time to save last minute panic
• You have been provided with a calendar again this year, please make a note of your bookings - Once you have received your confirmation email you have committed to attend the training.
• Take note of the times … it is assumed that if you are able to attend,  you will be available for the FULL duration of the course, the group dynamics alter when candidates leave early and this will impact on the overall success of the event!
• Provide photographic evidence when required to do so – some of the health and safety accredited courses need you to verify that you are who you state you are.
• Complete all tasks that the trainer may give you (some of which may need to be completed in the setting or in the delegates own time) and where necessary undergo any assessment that may be part of the course in order to achieve the necessary outcomes of the course, Managers are expected to support staff in doing this.
• On course completion you are required to go online and submit your post course evaluation comments so that these can be used by the Workforce Development Team in order to monitor quality of delivery.  Once this has been completed your certificate will be emailed to you as a pdf.
