Hi all I’ll add my personal feedback too as I was very happy with the training. I found that the content provides a good basic awareness of the occurrence, legal context and processes involved with asbestos on potentially contaminated land. The modules are delivered so that they can be fitted around the working day and at a pace to suit the learner. The tests at the end of each module provide an opportunity to review the slides and check understanding of the main points. I found the course to be reasonably priced and a very useful overview of the issues surrounding asbestos on brownfield land. Worth a look if you are after update or introductory awareness training.

CL:AIRE has been pleased to receive the following independent feedback from a geoenvironmental consultant and an environmental engineer/trainer at a major remediation contractor who have both taken the course: " Very good, well thought through set of modules that gives a good basic understanding of the issues and processes involved in dealing with asbestos. It was particularly interesting how much asbestos products were used in buildings, particularly domestic housing during the 1960s. Tests at the end of the modules were set at the right level to ensure that you had taken the content in and understood the main points. I would thoroughly recommend that anyone in a land contamination or geotechnical discipline undertakes this course. " "The CL:AIRE Asbestos Awareness Training (Category A training) is by far the most detailed and comprehensive Category A training I have ever engaged in – either on line or in person. I found that the Asbestos Awareness was longer than the more established courses delivered by UKATA accredited bodies and others. This will be the case as we have to cover more based on CAR-SOIL than stated in CAR2012 – specifically modules on the how soils become contaminated with asbestos and types of asbestos that may be encountered on contaminated sites. Generally, the content was excellent and I found it to be both interesting and engaging.” Further information and to book on the course, please visit: https://www.claire.co.uk/commerce/asbestos-awareness-for-landprofessionals-elearning/112356-asbestos-awareness-for-landprofessionals-elearning --- Nicola Harries CGeol, CSci - Project Director Mobile: 07813 701898 Email: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> CL:AIRE 32 Bloomsbury Street London WC1B 3QJ Website: www.claire.co.uk<http://www.claire.co.uk> Office Tel: +44 (0)20 7299 4250 ------------------------------------------------ Not yet a CL:AIRE Member?
