Our Fire Safety on Construction Sites Training Course CPD Is Fully Accredited

We’re delighted to announce that our “Fire Alarms for Construction Sites” CPD is officially accredited by the CPD Certification Service.

The focus of our recent Hot Topics session delivered by Martin Woodfield, the session provides a clear, practical understanding of fire detection and alarm requirements across construction environments – one of the most challenging areas for maintaining compliance.

Why This Accreditation Matters

Accredited CPD is more than a badge – it’s an assurance that the training meets a recognised professional standard. For construction professionals, fire engineers, health and safety managers, and project teams, accredited CPD:

  • Supports your professional membership requirements (e.g., IOSH, IIRSM, CIOB, RICS, APM)
  • Demonstrates competence in key areas of fire safety management
  • Helps maintain compliance in roles where safety-critical decisions must be justified
  • Ensures learning is externally validated, not just informative
  • Strengthens your personal development record and career progression

With fire risk on construction sites changing almost daily, keeping up to date on best practice is essential – and accredited learning gives you confidence that the knowledge is robust, relevant, and up to standard.

What the Session Covers

This CPD gives delegates:

  • A structured overview of temporary fire alarm categories and when each should be used
  • Guidance on best practice and current regulatory expectations
  • Insight into fire engineering and risk-based decision making
  • Real-world examples showing how early planning reduces risk, cost, and delays

Excellent Feedback From Delegates

Our recent London event – the first session run under the new accreditation – saw strong engagement and extremely positive feedback.
Participants commented:

“Great event to discuss an important topic that doesn’t get much spotlight!”

“Great space to share different perspectives around detection and alarm systems in construction sites and temporary accommodation units. Thank you for the invitation.”

“Great session — very interactive and instructive.”

Attendees also appreciated the opportunity to discuss challenges openly with peers – reinforcing how important temporary fire alarms are in maintaining safety on live construction sites.

CPD Certificates Issued Soon

Attendees from the London session will shortly receive their official CPD certificates, which can be logged for their annual CPD hours or points.
