My instructor Gavin was amazing

My instructor Gavin was amazing. He really knew his stuff, using life experience to make all the sections relatable to the course. I’m happy to have taken my course with CST. I contacted them stating my intentions and they called me within 20 minutes to arrange a course, pressure free. Thanks CST

I recently completed my SMSTS course with CST Training and had an excellent experience from start to finish. The whole team was extremely professional, well organised, helpful and supportive throughout the course.

A special thank you to our tutor, Frank Sutherland, for delivering the course in such a clear, engaging and professional manner. His knowledge, practical experience and ability to explain complex health and safety topics made the course both interesting and easy to understand. He was always patient, approachable and happy to answer any questions.

I would highly recommend CST Training and Frank Sutherland to anyone considering completing their SMSTS course. Thank you for a very positive and valuable learning experience.

Administration should be as good as tutor.

Success. It depends on the whole system you are dealing with. The most important part is tutor. Lucky we got Mr Gavin Bricklebank as our tutor. He is honest, hardworking and delivers his lectures, briefings and introduction to the course in an actively manner. It means that when he is speaking, candidates absorb the knowledge instead of sleeping.
Apart from Tutor, other important aspect is "Admin" of the institution of CST Training which is not very active in my case. I passed my HSA (Health and Safety Awareness) course on 24/07/2026 for CSCS Labourer Card but it was not showing up on CITB Checker until yesterday 3/08/2026. I am still waiting to see it on CITB Checker. Administration process is very slow.

Did my SMSTS with CST Training, Sharon Collins was my tutor, a big thank you to her and it makes a great change to be taught by someone who has done the job on the ground, with a lot of varied experience, it brings the course into the real world, not just academics from a text book !

The course was really good and I…will reefer to other colegues

The course was really good and I learned a lot. The trainer, Sharon Collins, explained everything clearly and always took the time to answer my questions, which made it much easier to understand the topics.

It was a great experience for me because I got to learn more about the construction industry and site management. I'm sure this course will help me in my career going forward.
