Who Train Aid Solutions is built for

Train Aid Solutions does one job: the paperwork after in-person training happens. Register, mark the outcome, issue a branded certificate, chase the renewal, keep records that stand up to an audit.

01
The refresher cycle

Annual for asbestos, three years for first aid, five for a site card. Each one has its own validity period.

02
Who checks the certificate

Potential new employers, customers and auditors.

03
What an audit asks for

Outcome scores, session documents, and proof of what was actually delivered.

The job is the same in every sector. What changes is the refresher cycle, who checks the certificate, and what an audit asks for. These pages cover the specifics.

By sector

Nine detailed pages, one product underneath

First aid training providers illustration Three-year cycle
First aid training providers

Three-year FAW and EFAW cycles, requalification windows that cost your learners a full extra day if missed, and buyers with their own HSE due diligence duty.

Asbestos awareness training providers illustration Annual refresher
Asbestos awareness training providers

Annual refreshers under CAR 2012, the shortest cycle of any common UK course. Category A, B and C records that tell an auditor which was delivered.

Health and safety training providers illustration Multiple validity periods
Health and safety training providers

Multiple courses, each with a different validity period. Manual handling, fire marshal, working at height, IOSH, all tracked on their own intervals in one system.

Construction and plant training providers illustration Five-year cards
Construction and plant training providers

Certificates that gate site access, checked at the gate by scanning a code. Five-year SSSTS, SMSTS and card scheme cycles that nobody remembers without a prompt.

Health and social care training providers illustration Annual + induction
Health and social care training providers

Your certificate becomes your client's CQC evidence. Annual moving and handling refreshers, constant induction training, and agency staff who need verifying at short notice.

Food safety training providers illustration No legal expiry
Food safety training providers

Thirty learners a session and thin margins, so admin time is the whole equation. Plus the awkward truth that Level 2 has no legal expiry, only a convention.

Fire safety training providers illustration Set by the risk assessment
Fire safety training providers

No legal expiry, but every client's risk assessment sets one. Marshals, wardens and awareness on different intervals, and an inspector who will ask for the evidence.

Security and SIA training providers illustration Three-year licence
Security and SIA training providers

One of the few sectors where the expiry is real: a three-year licence the learner cannot work without, and an awarding organisation that audits your records.

Mental health first aid training providers illustration Three-year refresher
Mental health first aid training providers

A three-year refresher nobody enforces, so the reminder is what brings learners back. Certificates the employer who booked the course needs on file.

Not on this list?

The product is not sector-specific. If you deliver classroom or on-site training in the UK and issue certificates, it works the same way whatever the subject. These pages exist because the compliance detail differs, not because the software does.

That includes safeguarding, driver and transport, marine and offshore, and the private academy market: fitness, yoga and pilates, dog training, beauty and aesthetics. Academies in that last group often have no regulated awarding body behind them, which makes their own branded, verifiable certificate the entire credential.

What it is not

Not an e-learning platform

There is no course content to author and no learner portal, because you teach in a room.

Not a booking or scheduling system

If your bottleneck is people struggling to book onto public courses, a training management system solves that better. We wrote about the difference here.

Common to every sector

One product, priced by class size

Every plan includes every feature. Plans differ only in the learner seats you use each month, so you pay for class size rather than for a feature list. Existing training history imports free of charge and without using seats, so renewal reminders start working from day one rather than from year three.

Whatever you teach, the certificates and paperwork are the same problems that Train Aid Solutions can solve for your business.
