Tailored Training Courses
We also run tailored training courses, either on-site or at our offices, for companies requiring a bespoke approach to training and CE and/or UKCA mark induction. Courses can be designed to your specific products and CE/UKCA marking needs.
Tailored Training is geared specifically to your requirements - we talk to you and take a brief of your needs and then submit training proposals based on those needs. We base tailored training around a series of 'modules', which we have found to be almost universal amongst those companies we provide training to. But of course even the modules can be amended or altered to suit any specifics you require.
Designing Your Training Course
Modules can be combined to form daylong training programmes or taken module-by-module over a longer period.
Starting with a general introduction to CE and UKCA marking, you will gain general knowledge of the CE and UKCA marking processes. Follow up with key directive modules of your choice for an introduction to the directives applicable to you, progressing to one of our issue focused additional modules if required. The course can also include a CE and/or UKCA surgery where you will have the opportunity to discuss specific issues and/or one of our practical sessions, giving you hands-on experience of the CE and UKCA marking processes.
The following are examples of the modules we offer:
- General Introduction to CE and UKCA Marking (this module will be included if required.)

Training Course FAQs
Who can attend a tailored training course?
We cover all levels of expertise, from basic introductions to CE and UKCA marking through to niche product specialisations, and training for product managers, safety managers and operators at all levels of company structure who are involved in meeting regulatory obligations.
Why should I choose tailored training over scheduled training?
Tailored courses are built to meet your specific needs and are the preferred option if you need to train more than three of your staff, or if you have some very specific product related issues which you would like to examine in more depth.
Where will the course be delivered?
Our tailored courses can be delivered on-site or at our offices.
How do I structure my training course?
Courses are based on a modular structure, enabling you to select the modules that cover your particular interests. We will also adjust the content of these modules through discussions with you in advance of the course and we will ask you for examples of your specific product issues so we can ensure these are covered during the session.
