Entry into Confined Spaces with Escape Breathing Apparatus

This one day course is predominantly intended for practical users who need to enter spaces which are substantially enclosed and where there is a potentially hazardous working environment. It would also benefit Managers, Supervisors, Engineers etc (who may have need to control work in these locations). This course can be delivered either at your venue or at our dedicated training centre in Staffordshire and is in line with the Confined Spaces Regulation 1997. This course can also be accredited by Training Qualifications UK (TQUK).

Course Objectives
