Why is this safety class important?

Confined Space Entry training is required is because Confined Space Entry work is extremely hazardous. These spaces are not designed for human occupancy: confined spaces are 150 times more dangerous than regular workplaces.

Additionally, harmful substances or processes may exist. Proper training, safe work procedures, and safety/rescue equipment is needed to ensure workers are protected.

Our comprehensive training is covered in a one-day course. Students gain an understanding of confined space entry, monitor, and rescue techniques.

The course includes theoretical and practical components: Each chapter has opportunities for hands-on learning, student feedback, and knowledge testing.

What will I learn in a Confined Space Entry and Rescue Course?

Theoretical Components of the course include:

• Definition of a enclosed and confined spaces
• Confined space hazards
• Hazard assessment
• How to complete a confined space entry permit
• Electronic Monitors, Function testing and Calibration
• Safety monitor and safety watch
• Rescue Equipment, rescue training, and ERP Planning

The practical component of our course has the following components:

• Testing of hazardous atmospheres, using gas detection monitors, Rae and Draeger tube type detector pumps
• Completion of documents needed for pre‐entry.
• Mock entry, evacuation and rescue from a confined space
• Rescue drills from a confined space simulator.

This Confined Space Entry and Rescue Training Course is 8 to 10 hours and students will receive certification that is valid for 3 years.
