This two-days, 8 hours per day, face-to-face course combines theory and practical training, delivered by experienced trainers with current industry knowledge.
Theory training and assessment – students will learn to identify, assess, and control hazards, conduct risk assessments 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 participate in rescue operations, undertake confined space rescues, and identify, detect, and monitor hazardous materials at an incident. They will practice safe entry, work, and exit procedures in confined spaces, operate gas detection equipment, implement hazard control measures, follow permit procedures, and demonstrate competency under supervised, simulated emergency conditions.
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 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 during confined space entry and work exercises
Verbal questioning to assess underpinning knowledge of hazards and safety procedures
Written responses to theory-based questions
Portfolio evidence, including completed workplace documents or work samples
A combination of the above methods
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.
Host Safety and Training RTO (40772) offers Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) for students who can demonstrate prior skills and experience relevant to the course outcomes. Students may also be eligible for Credit Transfer (CT) for unit of competency they have previously completed through another Registered Training Organisation (RTO).
RPL and CT applications are assessed individually in accordance with our RPL/CT Policy and the requirements of the training package.
