Infection Control Certification

Understanding infection control is essential across all industries, but particularly in health, care, hospitality, and education, where people are more vulnerable to illness. Infections can spread rapidly if not managed effectively, leading to staff sickness, reduced productivity, reputational damage, and in some cases, serious health consequences. Our infection control training course equips learners with the knowledge and practical skills needed to minimise risks, follow best practices, and meet workplace responsibilities in line with legal and professional standards.

The course provides a clear, structured introduction to infection prevention and explains how to apply it in everyday workplace situations. The four comprehensive modules cover every critical aspect of infection prevention, from the fundamentals of cleaning and disinfection through to advanced hygiene practices. Learners will gain an understanding of how to implement correct waste management, select and use personal protective equipment effectively, and adopt life-saving hygiene habits.

The training also highlights the consequences of failing to follow correct procedures, demonstrating the importance of maintaining high standards at all times. By the end of the course, learners will not only understand how infections spread but also know exactly how to reduce risks, protect themselves and others, and create a safer environment for colleagues, clients, and the public.

Our infection control training covers:

  • The principles and techniques of proper cleaning and disinfecting
  • The science of properly managing waste safely and responsibly
  • How to make use of protective equipment to control infection
  • Thorough and effective hand hygiene habits
  • The importance of respiratory hygiene and how to apply it
