The criteria for refresher courses remain the same as previously, the learner must already hold the Unit Standards they are refreshing.
It is generally seen as good work practice that trainees refresh these unit standards every 2 years. Duration of this course is 4 hours and will cover the unit Standards and a practical exercise to reinforce the trainee's knowledge on working in confined space correctly.
(The practical exercise can be replaced with our Workplace verifier process - This process is simple; a workplace verifier confirms the competency of the learner performing the tasks being refreshed by completing our Attestation form).
Refresher Unit Standards that are covered in this training are:
NZQA Unit 18426 - Demonstrate knowledge of hazards associated with confined spaces
NZQA Unit 17599 - Plan a confined space entry
NZQA Unit 25510 - Operate an atmospheric testing device to determine a suitable atmosphere exists to work safely
NZQA Unit 3058 - Perform gas tests for an energy and chemical plant
