Training overview
This module gives the ordinary person — someone who works near hazardous energies rather than isolating them — the awareness to recognise the risk and respond correctly. It is a prerequisite building block for the Control of Hazardous Energies training.
This module forms part of GWO Basic Technical Training (BTT).
