The FMA Health and Safety Working Party have launched a programme of formal endorsement for member companies’ training schemes. The aim of the programme is to acknowledge and promote excellence and subsequently recognise and drive continuing enhancement of standards across the industry.

Endorsement is based on the findings of experienced assessors who review arrangements, venues, material and competency of trainers. The review incorporates a scored visit against a scoring mechanism resulting in a completed assessment review form and if appropriate an FMA Endorsement Certificate.
