Our offices and training facilities are located in Kurri Kurri about 15 km west of Newcastle in the Hunter Valley of NSW. The Group principally runs courses for 10 to 20 employees at clients’ worksites. As well courses in Risk Management (G1 and G2), Ergonomics and Accident Investigation are held at Kurri Kurri every month or when there are sufficient numbers. There is no minimum number from any one organisation for these courses but at least 10 participants are required for each course. All courses include practical exercises. We issue Certificates of Attainment for the accredited courses under the auspices of NSW VETAB and the Jim Knowles Group. Certificates of Attendance are issued for other courses.
