The IPCC needed Health and Safety training for its investigators working away from the office and at roadside investigations. Servoca was approached and through its use of expert consultants, developed and delivered a bespoke course at the IPCC’s regional offices over a four month period.  The outcome was that all investigators received training to improve their safety, while the client fulfilled its duty of care.  We received some excellent feedback, such as:

• “It was an excellent overview.  I would welcome a longer course by the same person.”
• “A brilliant mesmerising speaker.”
• “Thank you, the course was interesting, enjoyable & useful. It was appreciated.”
