Safety and compliance training
Safe Pass, manual handling and first aid, where a card is needed by a date.
Training is the one business where the product is a calendar. Everything else on a provider's website is secondary to whether someone can see the next date, check there is a place free and book it without ringing anybody.
Nobody arrives on a training provider's website to read about your ethos. They want to know when the next one runs, where it is, what it costs and whether they can book it tonight.
The individual pays by card tonight and wants a date, a price and a button. The training manager needs group rates, on-site delivery, an invoice and a purchase order, and three weeks to get it approved. One page rarely serves both well.
The machinery is the same: a schedule, an enrolment route and a certificate at the end. What changes is who is paying and how far ahead they plan.
You deal with the same person throughout. The schedule is the part that takes the thinking, so we start there rather than with the homepage. Most provider sites go live in 4 to 6 weeks.
Step 1 of 5
One call to work out which courses fill themselves and which ones need the website to do the selling.
Step 2 of 5
A page per course, written around what someone gets rather than what the syllabus covers.
Step 3 of 5
Dates on the page, bookable in the same step, and readable by Google rather than locked in a system.
Step 4 of 5
Every booking path put through end to end with a real card before anything goes live.
Step 5 of 5
You add next term's dates yourself in a few minutes, or we do it for you.
Fixed price agreed up front. Online booking and payment is the part worth budgeting for, and it is usually the part that pays for the site.
Fixed, written quotes. No hidden fees.
Straight answers on schedules, payment, award levels, venues and corporate bookings.
Running courses already? Ask us
You do, and it has to be quick or it will not happen. Dates, venues and remaining places are the one thing on a training website that is worthless the moment it is stale, so adding a date should take under a minute from a phone. If it takes a support ticket, the schedule will be three months out of date by spring.
Take the payment if the course has a fixed price and open enrolment. Someone deciding at eleven at night to book a Safe Pass course for Saturday will pay right then and will not ring on Monday. We built exactly that for Setanta Safety and Training in Waterford, with Stripe handling the payment.
To employers, yes. To individuals, rarely. Someone booking their own manual handling course is searching for the course name and their town, not for a level on the National Framework. Put the award and the level on the page because it matters for credibility and for corporate buyers, but do not lead with it.
One course page with the venues on it, unless there is genuinely different content per location. Three near-identical pages that differ only in the county name is the pattern search engines treat as doorway pages, and it tends to end with all three ranking for nothing.
It has to, and the split is usually a second path rather than a second site. An individual wants a date, a price and a booking button. A training manager wants to know about on-site delivery, group rates, invoicing and certification records. Same courses, different page, different call to action.
Most providers start with the schedule and add to it once bookings are coming through. The same person builds each piece.
