Workplace Assessment - Practical skills and competencies
Content These programs provide instruction through the provision of written notes and the successful completion of practical work sessions. Skill requirements are identified by the client. Copies of course notes are sent to the participants a month prior to the practical work sessions. The practical work session is preceded by a review of the content of the notes on-site. Principles of the assessment, operation and maintenance of equipment, recording and report of results are provided during the practical work sessions. Successful completion of the training program is provided by passing a theoretical and practical assessment. On-going technical assistance can be included in the training program. Examples Exposure monitoring of airborne contaminants Identification of asbestos containing materials Noise monitoring Site Requirements Access to the process areas
