Training Code of Conduct

1. Introduction

This code of conduct is for individuals who have booked to attend any on of the DHF‘s Safety training courses whether a diploma or certificate.

2. Aim

The code details the general requirements that are expected of a diploma or certificate holder and gives guidelines regarding the use of such.

3. Requirements and general information

It is a requirement that all attendees must:

• Act with integrity so as to uphold the standing and reputation of the DHF.
• Advise the DHF if they are charged with a criminal or civil offence.
• Keep themselves informed of current professional practices and developments appropriate to the level and type of their responsibilities.
• Carry out work with reasonable skills and care.
• Advise the DHF in writing when moving to a new employer.
• Be aware that the Diploma will be valid for 2 years.
• Keep their Diploma or Certificate updated. At the end of the two year period, a new Diploma will be issued by the DHF upon completion of a short on line refresher course or similar. 

4. Mis-use of logo or Diploma/Certificate

Attending a DHF training course does not entitle the holder of the Diploma or Certificate to use the DHF logo.  The Diploma or Certificate is issued for training only and is not proof of DHF membership.  It remains the property of DHF and will be withdrawn and the qualification revoked, if the owner is found to be in breach of this Code of Conduct, or using it in a manner that is not in line with DHF best practice

Companies who are not members of DHF who send their representatives onto a DHF training course must not allude to membership. 

5. Declaration of attendee

By ticking the box I agree that I have read and understood my obligation to adhering to this Code of Conduct and also advise DHF of any circumstantces that would possibly prevent me from using the Diploma or Certificate gained.
