HSS Training Launches Realtime Website

HSS Training, the specialist training division of HSS Hire, the national supplier of tool and equipment hire and related services, has launched a new website that offers users unrivalled control of their training needs.

The site, www.hsstraining.com, gives users real-time visibility of course availability for places that can be booked up to a year in advance at the touch of a button and with immediate booking confirmation. Prices on the site will be reflective of any bespoke discount agreements and payment can be made online by credit or debit card or charged to customers' HSS Training account.

Helping customers to plan, manage and review training capabilities within their organisation, the system also holds details of their training history, displays upcoming training courses that have been booked and sends notification of any training renewal requirements.

Mark Winfield, Director of HSS Training, comments: "You can't underestimate the importance of health and safety training to businesses and we wanted to help make it easier for them to not only find out about the courses available but to plan, book and review training too. It's important that managers have instant and easy visibility of the training capabilities and needs of their teams. Our new website makes the whole process much simpler, gives them total control and is a massive step forward for our industry."

HSS Training provides over 200 industry-recognised technical, safety and management training courses as well as new courses in key areas including workplace safety, working at height, health and safety and professional development.

Training courses are delivered by experienced in-house trainers at 23 Centres of Excellence throughout the UK and Ireland. Most courses can also be offered at customer locations and some are available through e-learning. The HSS Training catalogue can be requested via the new website: www.hsstraining.com or by calling 08457 66 77 99. Courses can be booked by phone or reserved online.
