One way to ensure the safety of all affected populations, and reduce the risk to your organisation, is to have an evacuation plan.
One of the most devastating losses to an organisation is the loss of human life. Apart from the emotional cost, it will inevitably lead to adverse publicity, significant costs in repairing and recovery of operations, large financial settlements, loss of organisational talent and leadership, impaired trading and severe its ability to deliver its product and quality of service.

Internal Quality Assurance System (click to open)
The Institute has setup a quality assurance framework that aims to safeguard the quality of further and higher education within an internal and external framework of accountability on a national, European and international level. The aim is to provide a fair system to effectively deliver its programme of study and hence promote student development.
The Institute is owned by RDConsultants Limited. The initial structure of the Institute to deliver quality in education provided will be as follows:
1. Policy for quality assurance
The aim of implementing quality assurance systems is to ensure the ongoing application and improvement of qualitative methods that ensure the training and development of students.
A system for quality assurance will be implemented that:
- Promotes a culture of quality, where the actions of its staff and course participants are inspired by a desire to continuously improve their practice, learning experience and outcomes.
- Ensures that tutors are suitably qualified and up to date with recent regulation and methods on the subject area of tuition.
- Implements a curriculum of studies that is adequately documented to support the student development as well as can be assessable by students.
- Monitors student performance through testing of the subject area and in class discussions.
- Analyses key deliverables such as number of students leaving training, number of students successfully completing a course, and increase in students year on year.
- Provides feedback and means for students to help them achieve better understanding of the area of study. This can include one to one appraisals, providing notes on mistakes made and providing further study material and requesting feedback.
- Evaluates the training being provided is delivering on expectations of the Institute, students and other stakeholders who are interested in the educational services being provided.
2. Institutional probity
The Company will appoint Directors who will be responsible for the leadership, management and continued trading of the Institute. The Directors will be appointed based on their experience and knowledge of running a business. Directors of the Company will be expected to have at least 3 years leadership experience in the same or similar line of business.
A qualified accountant, who is a member of a recognized accountancy body and holding warrant as certified public accountant, will be appointed to take responsibility of book keeping, preparation of accounts, payroll and submitting tax and other statutory returns. Furthermore the Company will appoint an external independent auditor to ensure that annually an independent audit is carried out of the business financial records. The auditor will also be a member of an accountancy body and will hold warrant as certified public accountant and auditor.
The financial management of the Institute will be monitored through annual budget and cash flow forecast. The budget will note expected student number and cost targets, and the cash flow will set forecast cash levels to maintain liquidity for the continued operations of the Institute.
Board meetings will be held quarterly to review budget and cash flow targets. During these meetings the Directors will discuss any specific weaknesses and threats to set budget and cash flow levels and take corrective action as appropriate. The aim is to align the business to remain competitive, cost efficient and able to continue providing tuition.
In addition, the directors will carry out regular reviews of internal controls and procedures to ensure the transparency and correct application of funds received. These reviews will also be on the agenda of board meetings.
3. Design and approval of programmes
Course programs will be setup that consider the following:
The expected entry requirements from interested students
Students applying for courses will be requested to provide their academic record together with any work experience. These will be evaluated to understand better the support required and whether a course will meet expectation of all parties involved. Feedback will be given on the adequacy of qualifications and work experience for the course applied for, principally by email. Feedback may include recommendation for applying for different courses if need be or an assessment on how best to prepare for the course on offer.
The learning objectives of courses available
Each course will focus on a specific topic of study and will have a designated programme of learning. Topics will be relevant to the subject matter and will also accommodate for a degree of flexibility to enable the continuous improvement of learning experience through feedback from students.
The amount of hours of training given
Each course will have an allocated time frame within which it will be delivered. The hours will be based on the programme deliverables including examination and the student level. It will include all the required knowledge to be achieved plus any assignments. The length of time will be appropriate to deliver the course contents and enable student to successful pass their exams.
Student engagement in the training provided
This will be achieved through in class discussions, hands on training in simulation exercises and testing throughout and at the end of course.
Study resources available, including online research
Each course will be supported by specific training guides and manuals. It will also provide students with information about any other knowledge resource including online research, and practical assignments where possible. This will ensure that students make full use of all available study material thus ensuring the successful delivery of the course.
Expected time spent on assignments and home study
Part of ensuring that courses successfully deliver the tuition applicable is to prepare students for the expected amount of personal study time they are required to do. This will be another important part when setting up a course, in that students will be expected to carry out assignments, personal study and other research work that will motivate them as part of their development.
Student feedback for continued improvement
Student will be provided with a short questionnaire at the end of the course in order to obtain feedback on areas of tuition such as the clarity of communication from the tutor, whether course material was relevant to their expectation, whether study material provided helped in their training, and if there is any other suggestion for improving the courses.
4. Student-centred learning, teaching and assessment
The Institute recognises the importance of getting a student involved, specifically to ensure that a student actively gets involved in the learning process. This will keep a student motivated to achieve its goals. The Institute is focused on providing high quality teaching, learning and assessment to all course participants irrespective of gender, race, religion, belief, disability or sexual orientation.
Engagement and participation
Students are likely already self-motivated towards learning the chosen area of study. This is mainly down to their objectives and curiosity from learning something new. However the Institute recognizes the importance of keeping students engaged. This can be achieved through appraising students, one to one review of work done by a student, challenging students in different assignments, building a culture of responsibility, demonstrating the applicability of the subject being taught and student feedback.
Engagement will lead to participation. The Institute believes that students should be helped in building a mindset of responsibility, hard work and self-determination in achieving their goal. Students will be encouraged to lead, to provide feedback and to actively seek to question instead of simply listening.
Communication and student interaction
Two way communication is key to the successful delivery of the Institute’s learning objectives. Students will be encouraged to discuss matters, to seek advice from the tutor, to make suggestions, to discuss with other students, and to proactively research the subject. Tutors will provide feedback both written and by discussing the results of assignments. Tutors will also encourage students to carry out research on the subject matter
Assessment
A key element of teaching a subject is assessment of a student’s performance. Assessment refers to the procedures in place to evaluate a student’s knowledge and performance of a subject matter and provide necessary feedback and information to the student.
The Institute will implement rigorous but fair assessment of students, from when a student applies to join a course, during training, and at exam level. All three stages of assessment will be conducted with the following principles:
- Procedures for assessment are clearly laid out to students, staff and other interested parties.
- Appropriate due diligence and clear feedback given to ensure the proper development of the student and the achievement of the objectives of all parties involved.
- All students irrespective of gender, race, religion, belief, disability or sexual orientation will be subject to the same procedures.
- Assessment will vary depending on programme of study in order to effectively address different subjects and stages of study.
All students will be assessed equally and will be subject to the same evaluation procedure. This is of importance for the students to ensure that all course participants successful achieve their study objectives and for the Institute to continue growing by attracting more students.
Assessment will need to be timely, thus enabling a student to take corrective action when required. For assessment to be timely, there will be the need for the teacher to monitor a student’s performance regularly, and ensure that effective two way communication exists.
Support
The Institute recognizes the importance of support to students. It is therefore committed towards providing any advice, as far as practical, on matters which somehow effect their study. Students are in fact to discuss matters directly if required with the tutor to ensure that their study experience is successful.
5. Student admission, progression, recognition and certification
The Institute’s quality procedures have been designed around the student’s life cycle with the Institute. This will involve implementing procedures at application, during training and upon completion of the training.
Admission
The Institute is open to anyone, irrespective of background, ethnicity, religion or sexual orientation. There will however be specific entry requirements depending on the chosen area of study. Specific forms will need to be filled and emailed to the Institute. The forms, apart from personal detail, will include the requirement to provide reason for choosing the course, and request the applicant to answer as to the applicability of the course once qualified. The Institute will review and assess the application received. Feedback will be given by email that includes any specific requirements to prepare for the course, and may also include information on other courses that may be available.
Progression
The Institute recognizes the importance of positive progression in studies of a student. This will help motivate the student to eventually qualify from the Course. To achieve such an important aim, tutors will monitor student grades throughout the course in assignments and mock tests. Feedback will be two way, in that tutors will encourage students to communicate back so that any setbacks are managed and hence adequately addressed.
Recognition and certification
Students who successfully pass final exams will receive qualification appropriately designated to the corresponding course attended.
Teaching staff
The institute will employ tutors that are suitably qualified and provide them with any required training for on- going professional development, including furthering their technical knowledge, teaching skills and communication.
Potential applicants for the position of teacher with the institute will need to have at least 3 years teaching work experience and at least same amount of years working in health and safety or related compliance field. All potential teachers will adhere to the quality standards of the Institute and will be responsible for the setup, implementation and constant improvement of the institute’s course. All applications received, irrespective of age, religion, ethnicity and sexual orientation, will be reviewed and assessed against the criteria required for the position on offer. Applicants meeting the criteria requested will be short listed and interviewed. Any decision taken will be solely based on skills, talent and the expected ability to deliver teaching effectively.
The Institute will review performance indicators, such as class attendance, exam results and feedback from students to ensure that teachers meet expectations of all parties involved.
The Institute will provide necessary support and training required to ensure the Continued Professional Development to Teachers, ensuring tuition is effectively and efficiently delivered.
Teachers at the Institute will in fact be required to attend accredited any internal (organized by Institute) and external courses (provided by third parties) and carry out any personal study and research to ensure they meet their Continued Professional Development (CPD). They are also expected to enhance their knowledge and skills in teaching, communication and leadership and management as part of their role within the Institute.
7. Learning resources and student support
Students requiring special needs may seek assistance from the tutor or provide information on specific requirements upon application. The Institute will provide adequate means to ensure such students receive the same training as any other student.
The Institute will monitor the attitude and behavior of students. Students will receive adequate attention to both their personal and social development. The aim is to provide any necessary coaching or guidance which will help develop the student not only on the topic taught but also personally. In this regards, student attendance will be carefully monitored and supportive action is taken on poor performance.
No bullying, discrimination or other form of intolerances against students or teachers is accepted within the Institute. Any such reports will be thoroughly investigated and corrective action taken.
The Institute will provide copies of slides, and online references for student research and study. The Institute will also provide lists of text books to purchase. Students will be grouped in small numbers to ensure adequate interaction with tutor. Students will be taught through slides, white board and direct interaction.
8. Information management
As part of its operations the Institute will collect and hold personal data about students as well as other key information such as class attendance, exam results, feedback from students and recommendations from teachers. All such data will be processed, recorded and stored in accordance to General Data Protection Regulation (GPPR) in Malta.
Considering the volume of documentation involved, data will mainly be collected, stored and supplied online subject to certain exceptions such as application forms, and written reports from tutors. Online data will be stored electronically with daily backups taken of hard drives to ensure no data is lost. Online security software will be used to ensure the complete security of private and sensitive information. Any physical documentation will be scanned and stored electronically, and then kept in a secure filing cabinet. Employees handling private information will be explained the requirements of GDPR and explained how data can be stored and not provided unless authorization is given.
All feedback forms and other written suggestions will be checked individually and a proper and rigorous assessment carried out to ensure the improvement in the service being provided.
The Institute will use key performance indicators, such as student turnover, success rate, rating given by students on their feedback form and growth in student number to assess the quality of teaching provided by the Institute. Through such monitoring, the Institute aims to build quality in the tuition provided and hence ensure student motivation and successful completion of courses.
9. Public information
The objective of the Institute is to provide clear knowledge to the public of the courses provided so as to enable a potential student to make an informed judgement on whether to attend the course. To attain this we will provide prospective students with course details, entry requirements, tuition methods, suggested readings assessment methods, qualifications to be achieved and the expected career path from the course. This information will be available online and via letter by post to the applicant.
Through the Institute’s website, any potential applicants can review the courses available, requirements for such courses, and make enquiries by email if required. All queries received will be reviewed and an adequate response provided within a relatively short period of time. The reply will include all necessary details and supporting documentation.
10. Ongoing monitoring and periodic review of programmes
The Institute will carry out ongoing reviews of courses provided as part of ensuring the effective implementation of a quality management system.
The purpose of course reviews are:
- evaluate the effectiveness of programmes and assess whether students are achieving learning objectives.
- review feedback from tutors, students, professional bodies and other interested stakeholders. implement improvements to the study programmes.
- ensuring the continued applicability and hence validity of current training being provided including the methods used to deliver the training.
- analyzing the methods currently applied in providing tuition to ensure the Institute’s and Students’ objectives are aligned.
- identify areas for improvement to ensure that appropriate actions are taken in time to any weaknesses or threats to the Institute’s operations.
- increase participation from students, and other stakeholders including external parties for support to the development and enhancement of study programmes.
All courses are planned with the objective to deliver a specific area of knowledge to students. This objective will need to be analysed against results, and reviewed in detail based on feedback received from both students and teachers.
Reviews will be carried at end of each course, after exam results. They will be a part of board meetings as part of the review of the operations of Institute. During the meeting, all necessary information will be laid out to the directors who will review key statistic items such as exam results, average passmarks and student in-class participation, as well general feedback received from both tutor and student. Any necessary action required, will be implemented without delay prior to the commencement of the successive respective course. In case where significant changes occur, for example the need to expand further the course, or a new course setup, the Institute will notify NCFHE, and the institute’s website will be update accordingly.
11. Cyclical external quality assurance
We understand that as an institution providing tuition to the public will expect to undergo external quality assurance by, or with the approval of the NCFHE on a cyclical basis according to NCFHE guidelines, once every five years. Therefore we shall retain any necessary records to meet such a requirement.
