Gas Test Atmospheres

Nationally Recognised Vocational Education and Training (VET)

This course covers the skills and knowledge required to test the working atmosphere, using electronic test apparatus, to find out if it is safe for the proposed work. It applies to situations where an individual may be required to carry out gas testing of an atmosphere prior to entering a specific area or workspace. The competency requires the person to interpret readings and take actions based on the interpretation.

The working environment may be hazardous, unpredictable, subject to time pressure, chaotic and expose responders to risk, on land or water, by day or night. Workplace atmospheres may include visible and invisible hazards and hazardous surfaces.

About Coal Train

Coal Train is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) that puts safety first: we provide a variety of training courses to help individuals, managers and trainers to obtain the skills and qualifications required to safely work in the resource sector. Our training courses also apply to other sectors, including business, hospitality, first aid, management, leadership and more

Our courses teach the skills required to communicate well and work safely and productively in high-risk workplaces (such as coal mines). We partner with training departments within the resource sector to ensure they have the tools to manage training and compliance as well as meeting Workplace Health and Safety obligations and other government standards.

Our courses set, teach and test competency benchmarks on everything from the basic training required to work on a Queensland coal mine, operating light vehicles, first aid, risk management and keeping up-to-date with the changes and advances in the industry, to Vocational Education Training (VET), which enables supervisors to implement their own certified training courses.
