This 8-hour Confined Space Competent Person (User) course prepares participants to safely and effectively perform work in confined spaces by providing in-depth training on all aspects of confined space entry. The course emphasizes the responsibilities and coordination among the entrant, attendant, and entry supervisor, along with a strong focus on practical application.
