Course Description

Back to all courses

Confined spaces can be an extremely dangerous work environment and the utmost of care and caution needs to be taken before anyone considers entering or working near a confined space. Identifying, understanding, and controlling the hazards provides workers with the ability to safely perform their duties within, or when monitoring these environments.

This two-day course discusses various aspects of an on-site confined space program. Participants will learn the principles required to safely identify, assess, monitor, and/or enter the confined spaces they may encounter on the job site. The content will also cover the various roles and responsibilities required for a confined space program. This course includes case studies and a series of interactive workshops designed to provide students with the opportunity to apply the knowledge they gain throughout the session.
