The course is designed for delegates who already hold SMTH but require refreshing on the competences prior to attending the one day one to one assessment.

Evidence of a valid SMTH card is required prior to attending the course.

Delegates will be refreshed on the following areas (assuming they already hold these competences):

• Core Skills
• Aspect Testing
• Points Testing
• Cable Function Testing
• Diversion of a Circuit

At the beginning of the session delegates will be provided with the pre-recertification theory test. In preparation delegates should read the latest SMTH and relevant parts of the Rule Book and SMS.

40% theory with pro-active scenarios and discussions to assist the delegates with their understanding.

60% practical sessions with demonstrations and time for delegates to practice and reinforce the theory sessions relating to the defined tests.

Delegates are expected to provide a copy of their current SMTH card together with evidence showing the pre-requisite of SEM1/2 or equivalent has been attended.

Note, no recertification pre-test training is provided or permitted – it is expected that at this level individuals should have this understanding prior to attending a refresher.

Should the delegate feel that additional training is required to successfully pass this pre-test then they need to attend the full SMTH Initial course.
