When should ITT students be registered on-line for their H&S accreditation?, The D&T Association H&S Training Standards establish the professional view of what should constitute the minimum H&S training requirements for ITT students in D&T. It is assumed that students in training will be undertaking this H&S training throughout the year and as a result it is not anticipated that their Registered D&T H&S Consultant (RDTHSC) would normally register them on-line for accreditation until all of their training has been completed. For example, to complete the Core Standards, trainees...
