We are leading providers of Working at Height training and offer a wide range of progressive City & Guilds Assured courses.

Our experience as providers of working at height rescue services has allowed us to develop bespoke, realistic, practical and safe training on our state-of-the-art working at height facilities. 

These nationwide facilities are designed to replicate real-life work at height scenarios and include external ladders, hatches, rooftop anchor beams, handrails, slopes, gates and a range of internal furnishings. This allows us to tailor training to a wide range of industries and situations.

What is the right working at height training course for me?

Our work at height experts have created unique courses that have been through the City & Guilds Assured Product route. Our courses also comply with all current regulations and the requirements of the Work at Height Regulations 2005. We offer a range of courses with those who successfully complete a course have the option to either choose a City & Guilds Assured Product Certificate or MRS certificate.

We recently had a 3-day Advanced Working at Height & Rescue course at MRS Training & Rescue. This was a very informative course and vital for anyone working at height. The training facility is very good with a great instructor. We have gained vital knowledge on which equipment to use in which situation and how to use, maintain & inspect it. I would highly recommend this course. We now have the correct training to tackle awkward gutters at height :-)

Advanced working at height and rescue course. A fantastic in depth course that I left feeling l'd actually learned something. The instructor Brett was fantastic and even though I did the course with 2 people from MRS, I always felt included and I benefitted from a wider range industry knowledge. Overall, a very comprehensive, well presented and well delivered course. The practical was especially well presented and really gave an actual feeling of rescue. I truly recommend this course and provider and before you, no I'm not paid for this review.

I have attended many training courses in the past and found them to be ok. However, I attended this working at height and confined spaces course hosted by Derek Spiers and this is how a course should be done. I found Derek has a vast amount of knowledge, his people skills are second to none and the guy even has a great sense of humour. The site is very well organised even in these Covid times. I would highly recommend this course and would like to take this opportunity to say a massive thank you to Derek from the whole team at Veolia/ Biochemica. Derek, you're a Top man. Many thanks Graham
