The modules

01

The Advisor's Craft

The advisor's toolkit reframed as leadership training: honest inspection, paperwork against culture, influence without authority, and evidence that survives scrutiny.

  1. The Site as It Really Is · about 8 minutes
  2. Paperwork Against Culture · about 6 minutes
  3. Influence Without Authority · about 7 minutes
  4. Cause, Not Blame, and the Record That Survives · about 6 minutes

Module exam: 10 questions, about 5 minutes.

02

The Regime and the Real Risk

The legal architecture worn practically, not recited: general duties and CDM, RIDDOR and enforcement, sentencing and liability, and the occupational and mental health risks that actually kill.

  1. The Law That Actually Applies · about 7 minutes
  2. RIDDOR and the Inspector's Visit · about 8 minutes

03

The Management Layer

Leading a function rather than covering a site: one standard across a region, assurance separated from advice, indicators and behaviour that reflect real risk, and audit and incident response that hold under pressure.

  1. Leading a Function Across a Region · about 7 minutes
  2. Assurance and Advice · about 6 minutes
  3. The Trap of the Number · about 7 minutes
  4. Auditing That Finds Things, and the First Hours · about 8 minutes

04

  3. The Boardroom and the First Ninety Days · about 7 minutes
