The course is delivered via MS Teams or alternative video link in ‘virtual classroom environment’ with a live presenter.
Our trainers are experienced legionella professionals, typically from our consultancy department.
The course information takes about three hours to deliver and is split in to three one-hour sessions with breaks in between. We suggest you allow a morning or an afternoon up to four hours depending on the size of the group to allow for introductions and questions.
A test is not required. Throughout the training the presenter will interact with attendees and ask questions to ensure understanding and review material as necessary.
If you are organising training for your team and would like an assessment to be included, we can include a test and discuss your requirements with you.
