What is CDM Awareness Training?
The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM 2015) apply to all construction projects, regardless of size or duration. CDM Awareness training ensures everyone involved in a project understands their legal duties and how health and safety should be managed from the planning stage through to completion.
This course provides a clear, practical overview of CDM responsibilities, focusing on sensible planning, coordination and risk management. It helps delegates understand how good communication, cooperation and supervision contribute to safer sites, better project outcomes and compliance with legal requirements.
The training is designed to be practical and relevant, avoiding unnecessary theory and focusing on how CDM works in real construction environments.
