About the course

SHEA Core is the foundation qualification for anyone working on or visiting operational sites across the water, gas, power, telecoms and wider utilities sectors. Developed in line with Health and Safety Executive (HSE) guidance, it gives delegates a solid grounding in workplace safety, environmental responsibility and emergency procedures before they set foot on site.

It is required for full-time employees, temporary contractors and site visitors alike. Wherever operational site access is needed, SHEA Core is usually the minimum standard.

Who needs it

New entrants, labourers, support staff and site visitors who need general access to utility or construction sites.

Course FAQs

Can't see your question? Get in touch and we'll help you choose the right course.

How long is the SHEA Core course?

SHEA Core takes one day and is delivered live online, so there is no travel and no time lost getting to a training centre.

Do I need any experience to attend?

No previous experience or qualifications are needed. You should be comfortable with spoken and written English, and for online sessions you'll need a computer or laptop with a webcam, microphone and a reliable internet connection.

How is the course assessed?

Each module is assessed with a short multiple-choice test set by EUSR. Your trainer works through the content with you first, so you go into each assessment prepared.

How long is SHEA Core valid?

Your SHEA Core registration is valid for 3 years. Book your renewal before it expires to keep your site access without a gap.

Is SHEA Core enough to get me on site?

It gives you the baseline safety clearance, but it isn't a universal pass. Some clients and principal contractors also ask for a sector course such as SHEA Gas, Power or Water, a trade competency card or a site induction. Check with your employer if you're unsure.
