Confined Space Training Course
The Confined Space Entry & Monitor Training Program provides workers, attendants, and supervisors with the knowledge and practical skills to plan and perform safe work in confined spaces. This full-day, 8-hour course blends classroom instruction with practical exercises focused on atmospheric testing, hazard control, and emergency readiness.
Participants learn how to identify and classify confined spaces, complete entry permits, use gas monitoring equipment, and apply control measures to prevent incidents during entry or monitoring activities. The program also covers ventilation, isolation, and rescue planning, emphasizing both hazard recognition and sound decision-making on site.
Built around the principles of CSA Z1006 – Management of Work in Confined Spaces, this NCSO-approved course ensures national consistency with recognized Canadian safety standards. Training is available in English and Spanish, using equivalent, professionally translated materials to maintain accuracy and instructional quality.
