Training that follows
from the work.

Most H&S training delivers information. ProElevate training is built around behaviour — what good leadership actually looks like in practice, at every level of a construction business, under the conditions that real projects create.

ProElevate training courses are developed from the same foundation as our advisory work: direct operational experience across construction and engineering environments, combined with an understanding of how businesses actually behave under commercial pressure.

The courses below are designed to work at every level of a construction business — from the board to the site supervisor. Each is available as a standalone session. Where a leadership and operational review has already taken place, training can be targeted directly at the themes and gaps identified during that process, making it considerably more precise and more effective than generic provision.

If you are considering training without a prior review, that is entirely viable. The courses are built to stand on their own. A short conversation beforehand usually helps us tailor the content to your business and the specific pressures your teams are navigating.

Delivery

All courses are delivered in-house at your premises. This keeps disruption to a minimum and allows the content to be grounded in your specific operational context. In-house delivery is available UK-wide — trainer travel and one night’s accommodation where required are the only additional costs, agreed in advance. There are no venue or per-delegate facility fees.

Board & Director Level

Board · Director Level

Leading Safety — The Director’s Responsibility

One day · In-house · Up to 12 participants · UK-wide delivery

A focused session for construction directors and board-level leaders. Not a compliance briefing — a direct examination of what H&S leadership at director level requires, what the law expects, and how the decisions made at board level shape what happens operationally across the business.

Most directors understand that health and safety is their responsibility. Fewer have examined, in structured terms, what that responsibility looks like in practice when projects are busy, margins are tight and decisions are being made quickly. This course addresses that gap.

Session content
  • Director-level legal duties and personal liability
  • What good H&S governance looks like at board level
  • How leadership behaviour shapes operational safety culture
  • The gap between policy intent and operational reality
  • CDM 2015 duty holder responsibilities at director level
  • Leading through growth — when informal control breaks down
  • Operational drift — recognising it before it becomes a problem
  • What the HSE expects of construction directors
  • Building a position you can genuinely stand behind
  • Questions directors should be asking — and how to get honest answers

Senior Management & SLT

Senior Management · SLT

Managing H&S Across a Growing Construction Business

One day · In-house · Up to 12 participants · UK-wide delivery

Designed for contracts managers, operations directors, project managers and senior managers responsible for translating board-level expectations into operational reality across multiple sites and teams. The challenge at this level is not usually understanding the rules — it is maintaining consistent standards when projects, people and commercial pressures are pulling in different directions.

Session content
  • The senior manager’s role in the H&S management chain
  • Translating leadership intent into consistent operational practice
  • Managing standards across multiple sites and subcontractors
  • Recognising and responding to operational drift
  • What gets reported upward — and what doesn’t
  • CDM 2015 obligations at senior management level
  • Escalation — building a culture where concerns are raised early
  • Supervisor support — what good management looks like from above
  • Communication under programme pressure
  • Practical oversight without micromanagement

Supervisor Level

Supervisor · Site Leadership

What Good Looks Like — Supervision, Safety and Site Leadership

One day · In-house · Up to 12 participants · UK-wide delivery

Built for working supervisors in construction — the people who carry the greatest day-to-day operational responsibility for how work is actually done on site. This is not a generic health and safety awareness course. It is a practical, direct examination of what effective supervision requires: the authority it carries, the expectations attached to it, and the judgements supervisors are expected to make under pressure.

The session addresses something most training programmes avoid: what it actually means to stop unsafe work, when that decision needs to be made, and how to make it with confidence.

Session content
  • What good supervision looks like — in practice, not on paper
  • Roles, responsibilities and the limits of authority
  • Setting expectations before work begins
  • Pausing to assess — why this matters more than speed
  • When and how to stop unsafe work
  • Communicating clearly under operational pressure
  • Managing subcontractors and other trades on site
  • Escalation — what to raise, when and to whom
  • The supervisor’s role under CDM 2015
  • Leading by example — what the team takes from what you do

ProElevate also offers a CDM15 Refresher for Directors & Senior Teams — a focused one-day session covering CDM 2015 duty holder responsibilities in practical terms. Particularly relevant for businesses where CDM knowledge across the senior team has not been formally reviewed since the regulations came into force in 2015.

Training following a review

Where a ProElevate Leadership and Operational Oversight Review has already been carried out, training can be targeted precisely at what was found. Rather than covering broad ground, sessions focus on the specific leadership behaviours, operational gaps or CDM knowledge areas identified during the review process.

This makes training significantly more effective — and considerably shorter in delivery time, because it is not covering ground that does not need covering. If this is relevant to your business, it is worth discussing at the point of enquiry.
