Railway Training Courses - PTS Training Railway Training Courses - PTS Training

These include (but are not limited to) construction sites, rail depots and station maintenance. If you visit site as part of your role more than 12 times a year then you will need to complete the training and obtain the ICI competence.

As there has been an increase in demand for the ICI training there could be a delay in course availability and also a delay in receiving Sentinel cards following successful completion of the course. Due to this we urge your business to ensure you have a phased plan to train your staff in ICI to avoid possible non-conformance with the 1st June 2016 deadline.

The purpose of ICI is to:

1. Drive Safety; ensuring staff have a core competence in health safety & environment

2. Drive Productivity; reduce the amount of time taken to access site

3. Drive Consistency; covering safety procedures and risks that are common across the rail industry

4. Allow more focus; tailored briefs focusing on site risks and hazards specific to a location

5. Provide an entry level competency for working in the railway industry.

If you believe that you cannot comply with the ICI mandate then you should apply for a dispensation by formally writing a letter to [email protected] no later than 31st March 2016.

It is important to note that PTS does not supersede ICI and both competencies will need to be held in many cases. By holding ICI this allows you to access the site, and a PTS may be needed for work purposes.
