This HAVS Awareness online training course contains a variety of text based content, along with image, video, quiz, and other content as necessary to assist your learning.

The HAVS Awareness training course has been developed to be easy to understand and simple to navigate.

On completion of the course you will be assessed with a multiple choice test. Once you have passed the assessment you will be able to download your certificate for your records. The certificate is supplied in PDF format.
