How CPD can help you stand out from the crowd, and the importance of fixing your learning in a career-long framework.

Two experienced health and safety professionals explain how IOSH’s competency framework has helped them face up to the challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic.

After a 21-month safety, health and environment (SHE) apprenticeship with Kärcher, Liv Beckinsale joined the cleaning technology firm as a SHE coordinator in May. Last year, as an 18-year-old, she attended the inaugural IOSH Future Leaders Conference.

After 13 years as a plumber, Scott Middleton switched career paths and became a legionella team leader for a local authority before taking on his current role as health and safety specialist in NHS Grampian’s corporate health and safety team. He also represented the IOSH North East of Scotland branch at last year’s IOSH Future Leaders Conference.
