What the completion record shows

It records

  • Who completed which awareness module, and when
  • The knowledge-check result
  • A signed acknowledgement kept in your account

It does not establish

  • Accredited training or a qualification
  • Legal competence or authority approval
  • A substitute for practical, site-specific instruction

Frequently asked questions

Are these modules accredited or certified training?

No. These are HSE awareness modules. They are not accredited training, a qualification, or evidence of legal competence. They support — but do not replace — project-specific instruction, practical training, supervision and competent-person assessment.

Can I use them for site induction?

They work well as supporting material for inductions and toolbox talks, alongside your own site-specific induction covering the project's layout, hazards, emergency arrangements and rules.

Which languages are available?

Modules are available in English and Arabic. Selected downloads and templates are also issued in Hindi, Urdu, Malayalam and Tagalog. English remains the official record where translations are AI-assisted.

Can I assign modules to subcontractors?

Yes. On a paid plan you can assign modules to your team and subcontractor workers and see their completion status in the company dashboard alongside verified external training certificates.

What does the completion record show?

It shows who completed which awareness module, when, the knowledge-check result and a signed acknowledgement. It is an internal record of participation only — it does not establish competence, accreditation or regulatory approval.
