Course Overview

Hazmat incidents provide a significant challenge to first responder agencies.

This course will ensure delegates develop knowledge, skills and confidence in how to safely deal with the initial response of any incident involving hazardous materials.

The course has been aligned both to UK national operational guidance, national occupational standards, CAP 699 and NFPA 472 Responder.

The course is delivered by experienced Hazmat Officers and is fully accredited with a written assessment to certify competence.

Upon completion of this course, delegates will be able to identify the role of the Hazmat Officer on scene, as well as being able to carry out a structured analysis of the incident. They will also be able to predict the likely behaviour of hazardous materials and the importance of a comprehensive and accurate handover.
