Theory Online – Practice in the Workplace
For courses that require hands-on training, this can often be conducted at your own workplace with a qualified mentor. This could be a colleague, friend, or business partner with the necessary expertise. The mentor demonstrates, you practice, and your employer ensures that the training is adequate and documented. See the course page for the requirements that apply to your course.
The mentor must have the necessary expertise to perform the tasks safely and use the equipment properly. The person does not need to have taken our course.
The price of HSE courses varies depending on the subject area, duration, course format, and the need for hands-on training. The lowest course price is therefore not always the most cost-effective option overall. The company should compare the course content, documentation, time required, and the cost of employee absenteeism.
What factors affect the price of HSE training courses?
- Course format: Online courses typically involve lower travel and absenteeism costs than in-person classes.
- Duration and scope: Comprehensive on-the-job training costs more than short theory courses.
- Hands-on training: an instructor, equipment, and exercises may be provided in addition to the theoretical portion.
- Number of participants: Corporate agreements may result in a different price per participant.
- Documentation: course certificates, administration, and reporting may be included or priced separately.
- Continuing Education: Some fields require or recommend regular updating of knowledge.
Online course or in-person class?
Online courses are a good fit when the theoretical material can be covered individually and the company needs a flexible start date. Classroom settings may be better when discussion, group work, and guidance are key. For some job tasks, both formats must be supplemented with hands-on training.
| Cost | Online Course | Classroom |
|---|---|---|
| Course Fee | Price per participant | Price per participant or group |
| Travel and Accommodations | Usually none | May be added |
| Absences | Can be allocated flexibly | Fixed Course Day |
| Practical Section | To be performed separately when required | Can be included in the course curriculum |
