A new distance-learning programme enabling the study of the control of
hazardous substances in the workplace is now available.
CoSHH risk assessment 2003 is a new user-friendly multi-media course that
replicates the original programme, which is usually held at IOSH’s Wigston head
office, but enables delegates to study at their workplace or home rather than
having to travel.
The course covers CoSHH regulations, hazard data, CHIP regulations and a
number of other key factors in the control of hazardous substances. It allows a
much greater degree of flexibility, and rather than having to complete it in
two days, you can finish as and when you like.
Original course tutor, Geoff Hornby, has teamed up with computer-based
training specialists to design the programme, which contains a CD that aims to
give the health and safety professional everything they need to gain a
comprehensive understanding of CoSHH regulations.
The CD, which will require a minimum of Windows 95 to run, also comes with a
full copy of lecture notes, copies of both written and practical assessments
and a videotape to accompany the practical exam. This allows the course content
to be reviewed over and over again.
