Course overview:

This confined space and gas testing course will provide you with the skills and knowledge, as an entrant or observer, to identify the types of confined spaces and hazards and risks associated with working in a confined space.  It will also cover the atmospheric testing and equipment required to establish a planned and safe entry, as well as the correct emergency procedures in the event of a rescue.
 

Key Learning Objectives:

• Demonstrate knowledge of confined spaces, their permit notification and implementation requirements.
• Identify control measures to isolate, eliminate, and minimise the risk of hazards in confined spaces.
• Demonstrate knowledge of monitoring and confined space testing requirements.
• Describe the responsibilities and duties of people entering confined spaces or conducting observation duties for confined spaces.
• Identifying hazards and controls within confined spaces.
• Develop an emergency procedure plan for a confined space.
• Complete documentation is required for confined space entry.
• Demonstrate knowledge of atmospheric testing in potentially hazardous environments.
• Conduct atmospheric tests.
• Interpret and respond to atmospheric testing results.
• Demonstrate knowledge of gas testing and related hazards in the energy and chemical industry.
• Perform gas tests in an energy and chemical plant.
• Interpret and respond to gas test results in an energy and chemical plant.
• Identify the location, and work procedure to be carried out in the infrastructure industry.
• Examine an entry plan for completeness, and enter, complete work, and withdraw from a confined space in the infrastructure industry.
• Conduct a non-entry confined space rescue in the infrastructure industry
