Confined Space Entry: High Risk - Refresher (CSC03R)

This City & Guilds course is designed to refresh and reassess previously attained knowledge in working in a confined space with high-risk confined space entry requirements. It is ideal for individuals operating in complex confined space environments where safe systems of work and specialist rescue procedures are essential.

Participants will revisit confined space entry procedures for non-standard entry points, where rescue may be difficult. Due to the nature of these spaces, a hazard is likely to be present at some stage during entry.

The course ensures that all delegates can work safely in high-risk confined space conditions, particularly in hazardous industry sectors.

Who Should Attend?

This confined space training course is essential for individuals responsible for entering a confined space, controlling access, and managing emergency procedures. It is specifically designed for those requiring City & Guilds requalification in high-risk confined space entry.

Flexible Training Options

Training can be conducted at our purpose-built Eurosafe Training Academy or on your site using our Mobile Training Unit for convenience.
