SMSTS Refresher Course

The SMSTS Refresher Course is for site managers currently in managerial roles who need to renew their CITB SMSTS certificate.

This course is designed to refresh and reinforce your knowledge of key aspects of site safety, health, welfare, and the environment.

 Our CITB-accredited SMSTS Refresher courses are recognised by BUILDUK as meeting the required standards for construction site managers on BUILDUK sites.

Course Content

  • Current priorities of the Health and Safety Executive (HSE)
  • Risk assessments and method statements
  • Health, safety, and welfare on construction sites
  • Reporting requirements under RIDDOR
  • Behavioral safety in the workplace
  • Occupational health considerations
  • Updates and changes to construction-related legislation

Entry Requirements

To be eligible for the SMSTS Refresher course, you must:

  • Have good reading, writing, and comprehension skills in English.
  • Hold a valid SMSTS certificate (the course must be completed before it expires).
  • Provide a valid form of identification, such as a passport or driving licence.

Entry Requirements for the SMSTS Refresher Online Course

If you take the SMSTS Refresher course online via Zoom, you'll also need a PC or laptop with a microphone, webcam, and a reliable internet connection.

Course Assessment

Your CITB SMSTS Refresher exam takes place on the second day and includes 25 questions covering all key course areas.

The format includes 18 multiple-choice questions (worth one mark each) and 7 short written-answer questions (worth two marks each).

A passing score is 81% (26 out of 32), and the exam duration is 35 minutes. You are allowed to use your course books in the last 15 minutes.

Resit Procedure

If you fail the SMSTS Refresher exam but score between 72%–78% (23–25 out of 32), you can re-sit the exam. Failing the re-sit, however, will require you to complete the full SMSTS course.

Scoring below 69% (22 or fewer correct answers) means you must retake the full SMSTS course before attempting the exam again.

Feeling nervous about the exam? We offer free SMSTS Refresher mock exams and study resources to support your success.

What is the Cost of the Course?

Can I Take the SMSTS Refresher Course Online?

Yes! The course is available online via Zoom. Many learners prefer this option as it is more affordable and eliminates travel time and costs. The online course covers the same content as the classroom version.

Will I Receive a Certificate After Completing the Course?

Once you pass, you’ll receive an SMSTS Refresher certificate that remains valid for five years. To renew it, you must complete the SMSTS Refresher course before the five-year period ends.

Is this Course Eligible for a CITB Grant?
