CABWI Level 2 Award Working in Medium Risk Confined Spaces (2 Days)

Who should attend?

The CABWI Level 2 Award in Working in Medium Risk Confined Spaces allows learners to demonstrate the skills and knowledge required by those who need to work in medium risk confined spaces as part of their job role.  

Course Aim: 

This competence – based qualification covers the underpinning knowledge and practical skills required to work in medium risk confined spaces.  

This qualification may be taken by any learner ages 16 or over, although it is recognised that employers may have different age requirements for their employees who work in confined spaces. As the qualification involves practical assessment in a confined space environment, centres must ensure that any learner undertaking the qualification is medically fit, in line with the current industry requirements. For the water industry, these requirements can be found in the Water UK Occasional Guidance Note (OGN) – The Classification and Management of Confined Space Entries.  

Learning Outcomes:

The course will cover: 

• Preparing to work safely 

• Entering and exiting the confined space 

• Preparing and using appropriate respiratory equipment 

• Using equipment and tools safely 

• Following procedures 

• Dealing with emergencies 

• Appropriate knowledge and behaviour 

• Relevant industry standards 

Assessment Method:

The Level 2 Award in Working in Medium Risk Confined Spaces (Top Person) (Non-Entrant) is assessed using a practical observation of skills and a multiple choice knowledge test, both of which they must pass in order to gain the qualification.

Accreditation:

Successful candidates will be awarded with a CABWI certificate, valid for 3 years.
