Asbestos Awareness for Architects and Designers
Our complete range of interactive video-based online courses can be branded with your own label and distributed by your organisation.
Asbestos is arguably the most hazardous building material ever employed. Each year, thousands of people suffer from illnesses and fatalities due to asbestos exposure, and the construction industry extensively used it until the year 2000.
The Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR) apply to employers, employees, self-employed individuals, and duty holders, encompassing all work involving materials containing asbestos. Regulation 10 of CAR mandates that every employer ensures employees likely to be exposed to asbestos receive sufficient information, instruction, and training. This includes maintenance workers and others who may come into contact with or disturb asbestos.
In addition to educating candidates about the risks associated with working with asbestos, this Asbestos Awareness for Architects and Designers E-Learning Course provides content that helps them identify materials containing asbestos, familiarise themselves with its widespread use, and adopt measures to minimise risks. The course also covers the legislation relevant to asbestos work.
The target audience for the Asbestos Awareness for Architects and Designers E-Learning course includes architects and designers who work with buildings that may contain asbestos. It covers the same topics as our standard Asbestos Awareness course, with an additional module tailored specifically to the needs of architects and designers. This module outlines the legislation governing asbestos in the workplace and clarifies the responsibilities of architects and designers.
By undertaking the Asbestos Awareness for Architects and Designers E-Learning course, participants gain awareness of asbestos-containing products and the associated risks, empowering them and their supervisors to avoid work activities that may disturb asbestos.
The Asbestos Awareness for Architects and Designers E-Learning course has obtained approval from esteemed industry bodies, including IIRSM, Gatehouse Awards, CPD, and IATP.
Online training offers flexibility, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness, enabling candidates to progress through the course modules at their own pace and at their convenience. This flexibility allows them to seamlessly integrate the training into their work and personal commitments.
