Prize Draw 1 Update and Photos - Manual Handling Course

The manual handling train the trainer course was the first prize drawn for the 2008/2009 draw we had in November 2008. The prize schedule shows the year plan, click HERE to see the schedule.

As there were six winners originally, it proved a bit of a challenge trying to get everybody together in one place at the same time. So we had to agree a date that suited the trainer and kind prize contributor, Paul Donaldson of Health Environment and Risk Training, the date also had to suit everybody else and their busy schedules. Not only that but we had delegates who travelled a great distance, so that was a consideration as well.

The venue was the Business Gateway units in Camperdown Street, City Quay, Dundee with some great views and breakout areas into the bargain (pics below).

This was all done via dozens of emails. Dates were agreed and changed several times, one or two people had to give up their prize for one reason or another with new winners drawn from the hat.

But! Many emails later and a bit of determination and patience, we all finally managed to get together on Monday 11 May 2009!

The course was brilliant to say the least. Paul's training technique was very relaxed, friendly, down-to-earth and a bit of good humour into the bargain. I would personally recommend Paul's services at the drop of a hat and from what I've heard, Paul's NEBOSH General Certificate course is definitely worth its weight in gold.

It was great to meet up with visitors to HSfB and put a name to the face. A really interesting bunch. Photo's of the venue and delegates below.

Overall, a great day full of laughs, discussions on running marathons (sorry, my bad!), oh and we managed to squeeze in some manual handling train the trainer training ;).

My personal thanks to Paul and everybody who made it along to make the day such a memorable and educational day.

From the left we have......

Ian Brown, Sandra Johnston, Bruce Stark, Ged Keane, Simon Severn, Paul Donaldson and me, John Johnston.



Some great views from the venue in Dundee, but I'm not sure why I took a picture of the coat hanger!

Site News

13 July 2008

• You will now be able to keep up to date with the latest HS&E news articles through the www.healthandsafetyprofessional.co.uk RSS news feed on our home page. The RSS feed has up to the minute information and can be viewed in our 'Site News' box in the middle of the home page.
• New industry specific networking discussion forum section created on our Health and Safety Discussion Forums
  • What is the Networking Forum?
    
    The Networking Forum section does what it says on the tin. You can network with other HS&E professionals in your industry sector using the various forum sections and by using the various user groups set up to help keep in touch with each other.
    
    Networking User Groups
    
    Each networking forum section will have a user group set up in which you can request to join. You can view all user groups from within your user control panel where you can request to join a user group of your choice. Video guides on how to do this will be created soon.
    
    Your request will be sent to the individual user group leader for approval and once they have approved your request, you will be added to the group.
    
    The beauty of the user groups is that people can see at a glance who on the forums works in the same industry, so you can private message or email each other with industry specific queries etc. You can also send a private message to an entire user group if you like.
    
    User Group Leaders
    
    Each user group will have a leader and where there is no leader, the forum administrator will be the default group leader until somebody requests they want to take leadership on.
    
    Can I suggest a new networking section and user group?
    
    Absolutely! If you would like to create a new user group and networking forum section, just let the forum administrator know and it will be added for you.
    
    You don't necessarily need to become the group leader if you request a new user group.
    
    Networking Moderators are volunteers who will moderate the networking forum section. They will not be full HSfB Moderators for the rest of the discussion forums, but they won't mind you asking for help if you get stuck anywhere along the line.
