Entry requirements
There are no formal entry requirements for this course. However, it has been developed for construction supervisors, so this should be considered before enrolling delegates on this course.
Delegates must be competent in English at site supervisor level.
The minimum number of delegates per course is 4. The maximum number of delegates per course is 20. These are stipulated by the awarding body and are not subject to appeal.
Assessment will by an end of course examination and the trainer review. The delegate must pass the exam and pass both elements of the trainer review.
The examination demonstrates to external bodies that the certificate is only awarded to successful delegates following both an assessment and examination. The trainer review demonstrates engagement, collaborative working and listening skills – key elements of becoming an environmental supervisor..
The examination paper is compulsory and consists of 25 questions, selected by CITB, covering all aspects of the course.
The examination pass mark is 80% (24 out of 30).
The paper consists of 22 multiple choice questions and 3 questions in multi-response format.
The exam paper forms part of the overall assessment as to whether or not the delegate has successfully achieved a satisfactory level of understanding to be awarded the Site Environmental Awareness Training Scheme (SEATS) certificate.
The examination lasts for 30 minutes and must be completed within this time.
Delegates are permitted to use the Construction site safety - Environment (GE700Es) for the last ten minutes of the examination.
Where a delegate has passed the trainer's review and gained between 70%-77% (21, 22 or 23 out of 30) in the examination, then they may re-sit the examination. This can either be on the same day or by resitting the exam by attending another course on the final day within a 90 day period (the delegate is not obliged to re-do the course).
The training provider must make arrangements with the delegate and ensure that the same examination paper is not used twice.
Subsequent arrangements will be at the delegate’s own expense.
Should a delegate fail the re-sit, they will be offered to take the full SEATS course again.
When a delegate scores less than 67% (20 correct answers out of 30) in the final examination, the delegate must attend the full SEATS course again before they are allowed to re-sit the examination.
