Where the Safe Pass course Dundalk runsNearest venues: Belgard Road, Tallaght, Dublin 24 or Gorey Business Park, Gorey, Co. Wexford
A Safe Pass course Dundalk booking with WorkSafe Ireland is a tutor-led SOLAS day priced at €149.99 with the SOLAS card included, and every live Safe Pass course Dundalk date sits on one calendar. The Safe Pass course Dundalk learners book is delivered at two venues: Ashdown Park Hotel, Gorey, Co. Wexford (Y25 V1D6) and Uppercross Enterprises, Belgard Road, Tallaght, Dublin 24 (D24 X8CT). There is no separate training centre inside Dundalk itself, and we would rather tell you that plainly than advertise a room that does not exist. For learners travelling from Dundalk, the practical option is Tallaght, Dublin 24. Free on-site car parking and a Luas Red Line stop close by, twenty-five minutes from Dublin city centre.
That covers learners travelling from Dundalk town and from Ardee, Blackrock, Castlebellingham, Carlingford and Omeath, as well as north Co. Meath. If a south-east date suits you better, the Gorey venue runs the same course, and every date for both venues is listed on the one calendar.
For a company with a group of staff in Dundalk, on-site delivery is the other route. WorkSafe Ireland provides on-site certified training for groups and larger companies, which means the tutor travels to your premises instead of your crew losing a day to travel. Email info@worksafe.ie or call 053 94 81445 with your numbers and location and you will get a straight answer on whether an on-site date works.
What the Safe Pass course Dundalk day looks like
The Safe Pass course Dundalk learners attend is a one-day health and safety awareness programme set by SOLAS, not an exam you can cram for at home. The course runs 8:00am to 4:00pm and finishes with the written assessment, so you should plan for a full working day away from site.
The programme covers the legal duties that apply on Irish construction sites, accident reporting and prevention, manual handling awareness, working at height, excavations and confined spaces, electricity and underground services, and the health hazards you meet day to day such as noise, dust and vibration. It is delivered by a SOLAS-registered tutor in the room with you — every valid card in Ireland comes from a tutor-delivered course.
What to bring to your Safe Pass course Dundalk bookingNearest venues: Belgard Road, Tallaght, Dublin 24 or Gorey Business Park, Gorey, Co. Wexford
SOLAS sets three conditions on every participant, and they are not negotiable by a provider: you must be 16 years or older, a PPS number, and the ability to speak and write English. Bring photo identification and your PPS number written down. Without a PPS number SOLAS cannot issue your card, and no amount of goodwill on the day can work around that.
- Photo ID
- Your PPS number
- Something to write with for the end-of-day assessment
- Your own lunch or cash for lunch locally, if you prefer not to leave the venue
What a Safe Pass course Dundalk booking costsNearest venues: Belgard Road, Tallaght, Dublin 24 or Gorey Business Park, Gorey, Co. Wexford
The Safe Pass course Dundalk learners book is listed at €149.99 on the WorkSafe Ireland public calendar. That is the all-in figure for the public course: the SOLAS registration card, course materials and refreshments on the day are included, and there is no booking fee.

Prices and dates on this page are read from the live calendar rather than typed in from memory. If you see anything here that does not match the live schedule, the schedule is correct — it is the single source of truth.
Adding Manual Handling to your Safe Pass course Dundalk trip
If you are travelling in for a Safe Pass course Dundalk date anyway, the efficient move is to clear Manual Handling at the same time. WorkSafe Ireland runs Manual Handling in two parts: the theory is completed online at a time that suits you, and the visual practical assessment — roughly fifteen minutes — is taken straight after the Safe Pass course at the same venue. It is listed at €50.00. One trip, two certificates.
Why there is no online Safe Pass course Dundalk option
Google will show you plenty of results promising an online or same-day Safe Pass course Dundalk shortcut. SOLAS does not recognise any online-only Safe Pass, and a card issued by an online-only provider is not accepted on Irish construction sites. The SOLAS Safe Pass information page and the Citizens Information page on Safe Pass both set this out. If a site foreman rejects your card, that money is gone. Sit the tutor-led course.
The renewal route is different from the initial course. If you already hold a card, you can either sit the one-day course again or take the SOLAS alternative renewal test, a computer-based exam sat at an approved test centre and booked through your SOLAS account.
