Delivery
| Duration | |
| Full Day | Face to face training delivery in a classroom and paper-based assessment |
| Full Day | Remote training delivery via an e-Classroom and remote assessment |
Assessment
SHEA assessments (tests) are multiple choice and structured so that there is an assessment per module. They can be taken one module at a time, or all together at the same time.
Reminder: It is a specific condition for all CSCS Partner Card Schemes that assessments are invigilated. Invigilation of assessments will ensure the results are authentic and reliable, and mitigate the risk of identity fraud, cheating or collusion.

The EUSR ID card carries the CSCS Logo which reduces the need for individuals to carry more than one card.
