End of project summary

Non-licensed work on Asbestos in soil (NLW)

The e-training course is aimed at learners who have already completed asbestos in soil awareness training as required under Regulation 10 of Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. It includes a brief refresher of the main points that the awareness training should have covered.

This course will explain, and in some cases demonstrate, some of these aspects, but cannot provide opportunities for the delegate to try and practice for themselves. Delegates will be able to get 7 hours CPD.

In addition, site, task and equipment specific information, instruction and training (IIT) identified by training needs analysis (TNA) will of course be required to ensure compliance with Regulation 10 of Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.

This course complements the requirements for Non-Licensed Work (NLW) and refresher training as stated in HSE ACOP L143 and industry guidance documents (e.g. CIRIA C733, Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012: Interpretation for Managing and Working with Asbestos in Soil and Construction & Demolition materials: Industry Guidance (CARSOIL 2016) and CITB’s NVQ for asbestos).

This course is subsidised by CITB. The fees for non CIRIA members is £150 +VAT but for CITB levy payers, it is £95+VAT. In order to claim this, you will need to enter this code Asb20_CITB when prompted by our online checkout. More information
