Yes. You can renew with OSRL even if your original course was completed with another training provider.
Please email a copy of your valid certificate to training_uk@osrl.com at the time of booking so we can confirm your certification level and eligibility before enrolment. -
If your certificate expired within the last three months (up to 39 months from the date of issue), you’re still eligible for a refresher course.
If it has been longer than 39 months, you’ll need to retake the full course to regain certification.
Our team can advise on the best option for your situation. -
