The ScreenSkills Production Safety Passport approved course, created by the  Mark Milsome Foundation to protect and empower all crew,  aims to provide a modern refresher for those with decades of experience and serving as a learning tool for those setting foot on set for the first time.

Designed to be time and cost effective, it was written and directed by film director and then MMF Chair, Kirk Jones with the support of the National Film and Television School and technical support from Media Safety Ltd.  The course is just 90 minutes long, can be taken in one sitting or in bite sized chunks, and provides successful participants with a 5 Year Production Safety Passport.

  • The Law and Understanding the Chain of Responsibility
  • Risk Assessment and Management
  • Working Hours and Welfare
  • Communication, Competence, Due Diligence
  • When Things Go Wrong
  • Speaking Up
  • Health and Safety Abroad
  • Mental Health
The course has been independently certified as conforming to universally accepted Continuous Professional Development (CPD) guidelines.  Successful applicants will receive a Production Safety Passport via ScreenSkills.

I ask that all NFTS students take this course. It is by far the most engaging, modern and relevant Health and Safety course for students we have found.
