The Aim Safety
Difference
Aim Higher. Work Safer.
We are not a box-ticking training provider. Our instructors stay available after your course, we adapt our content to your site, and every programme we deliver is backed by SOLAS, QQI, and HSA accreditation.
Fully Accredited
Every course we deliver is accredited by SOLAS or QQI and fully recognised by the HSA. Your certification is valid, documented, and accepted by employers across Connacht.
Experienced Trainers
Our instructors bring 10+ years of hands-on experience in construction, manufacturing, and logistics — working on active sites, not just in training rooms.
On-site Delivery
We come to you. On-site training means your workers stay on-site, your schedule stays intact, and the training happens in the environment where the risks actually exist.
Tailored Programmes
We build programmes around your specific workplace, not a generic template. Construction, manufacturing, hospitality, healthcare — we tailor the content and delivery to match your team.
Ongoing Support
Your contact at Aim Safety stays available after training. We monitor changes in Irish health and safety law and alert you when your team needs a refresher or recertification.
Flexible Scheduling
Public courses run in Galway and across Connacht on weekdays, evenings, and weekends. On-site delivery is available at a time that fits your operations.

What Our
Clients Say
The Safe Pass course was well-structured and delivered professionally. Our entire site team completed it in one day with minimum disruption to our schedule.
Aim Safety came on-site for our Manual Handling training. The trainer was knowledgeable, engaging, and the practical component was excellent. Highly recommended.
We've used Aim Safety for our annual First Aid refresher courses for three years now. Always professional, always on time, and the quality never drops.
Their consultancy service helped us completely overhaul our safety statement and risk assessments. We passed our HSA inspection with flying colours.
