Asbestos Awareness

WHY TAKE THIS COURSE?

Asbestos Awareness Training is mandatory for all employees and contractors who are likely to come into contact with asbestos. Typically, workers who are likely to interfere with the fabric of a building, built pre 1999, are likely to come into contact with asbestos.

It is essential that anyone who comes into contact with asbestos knows what it is, what it does to you and how to avoid disturbing it.

Whatever your role in the construction industry, we'll ensure the course is suitable, useful and rewarding.

Course Information

It's important that the training is enjoyable, relevant and useful. That's why all of our courses are tailored to your needs. The following information is for general guidance, and we are happy to discuss your content, duration, location, certification and cost requirements.

TEACHING AND ASSESSMENT

The course is delivered through a combination of classroom-based tutorials. You will be assessed through theory. All of our trainers are accredited.

The non-equipment based courses can normally accommodate 6 candidates depending on the course and level of experience.

As with all of our courses, we ask if the candidates can read and understand English. We can provide a translator for the entire course or just for the theory if necessary, but there is an extra charge and we need to know this at the booking stage.
