Safe Pass training is delivered by SOLAS Approved Training Organisations and tutors. Safe Pass approved tutors are registered on the SOLAS training register and are authorised to organise and deliver Safe Pass training in keeping with SOLAS standards and are not contracted to SOLAS.
All Safe Pass tutors operate as an independent and separate legal entity. Tutors set their own rate for training and are paid either by the participant attending the Safe Pass course or by an Approved Training Organisation who contracts their services. Neither the Department nor SOLAS have a role in the setting of fees or in influencing pricing structure within the market place. There is a €32 fee payable to SOLAS, who administer the Safe Pass Programme, for the processing, manufacturing and distribution of Safe Pass cards which is unchanged and is generally included in the overall price for attending a course.
