This one-day, 8 hours per day, face-to-face course combines theory and practical training, delivered by experienced trainers with current industry knowledge.

Training is delivered in two sections

• Theory training and assessment – covers the key knowledge areas required for confined space work. Students will learn to identify, assess, and control hazards, conduct local risk control and hazard analysis, perform gas testing and interpret atmospheric conditions, issue, monitor, and control work permits, and understand confined space safety procedures, regulations, and industry best practices.

• Practical training with demonstration and assessment – hands-on component provides students with the opportunity to apply their knowledge in realistic confined space scenarios. Students will practice entering, working in, and exiting confined spaces safely, operate gas detection equipment and interpret results, apply hazard control measures and follow permit procedures, demonstrate safe work practices under simulated confined space conditions, and perform practical tasks under supervision to demonstrate their competency.

The course uses a blended learning approach, including face-to-face exercises, workplace simulations, and integrated knowledge assessments, ensuring students gain the competency, confidence, and safety awareness needed to operate safely in confined spaces.

Assessment Methods

Assessment is conducted by qualified assessors using a combination of tools and methods, in accordance with the principles of assessment (fairness, flexibility, validity, reliability) and the rules of evidence (valid, sufficient, current, authentic). Students will be assessed as either Competent or Not Yet Competent based on their performance against the unit requirements. Assessment methods may include:

• Direct observation of practical skills

• Verbal questioning to assess underpinning knowledge

• Written responses to theory-based questions

• Portfolio evidence, including completed workplace documents or work samples

• A combination of the above methods

Reassessment Information

If you are assessed as Not Yet Competent (NYC), you will have the opportunity to be reassessed. You may contact Host Safety and Training (RTO 40772) to arrange your reassessment. A reassessment fee may apply.

• Reassessment will focus only on the part of the assessment that was not successfully completed.

• Reassessment must be completed within 60 days of the original assessment.

• If the 60-day period lapses, the full assessment may need to be repeated.

• You will receive feedback and support to help you prepare for reassessment.
