Retailer knife training

Online training

We are implementing a Responsible Retailer Scheme. We recommend you sign up to this scheme by completing a short online course to support you & your staff in complying with the law around selling age-restricted products.

Key learning

  • Prevent underage sales of knives
  • How to store knives and bladed articles safely
  • How to monitor activity outside your business, especially if young people are hanging around.

On completion of this course, you and staff members will receive a certificate (sent to your email address). You should keep this as evidence for your business due diligence training records. Trading Standards will also receive a record that your premises have completed the course and are supporting the Responsible Retailing of Knives Scheme.
