In-house Courses
We currently only offer the New Roads and Street Works for Supervisors as an in-house course in the classroom. We work with a variety of NRSWA providers across the UK who deliver the course on behalf. The course can be arranged for a maximum of 8 delegates per tutor.
We price each in-house course on a case-by-case basis; we consider the course location and number of delegates for each quote. For a quote, complete the in-house training enquiry form on this page.
Entry Requirements
Delegates attending should be able to speak and understand English well.
The course can be delivered at your site, subject to approval by the awarding body.
