Legionella Awareness
Online Training Course
We have been recognised as an endorsed provider from Skills for Care, earning the prestigious distinction as a Centre of Excellence within training and health & social care.
Current legislation set out by the Health and Safety at Work Act and the HSE’s updated code of practice, known as L8, state that companies and building owners have a legal duty to manage Legionella.
Our interactive training course is aimed at all employers and staff to assist them in identifying the danger that Legionella poses, as well as covering ways to identify and assess sources of risk from Legionella on the premises. It also gives you enough knowledge to get a Legionella control programme off the ground yourself – or make confident, informed choices when commissioning others to take this on for you.
Lack of training and awareness of Legionella are factored in many legionella outbreaks. Having adequate training and carrying out appropriate checks can ensure water system safety.
Online training is flexible, efficient and cost-effective, meaning the candidate can progress through the modules at their
own pace and in their own time to fit the training around their work and personal life.
