During this 14-hour Confined Space Entry Training participants will learn the proper procedures for making entry into Permit Required Confined Spaces. The training is required before an employee can enter at Permit Required Confined Space, as codified in OSHA’s Confined Space Standard, 29 CFR 1910.146, and prepares participants to operate in the capacity of Entrant, Attendant or Supervisor during Confined Space operations. The course is a combination of classroom instruction, small group table-top problem solving, and hands-on practical scenarios in actual and simulated permit spaces utilizing the appropriate personal protective equipment, air monitors, and ventilation.

The curriculum includes:

  • Confined space regulations
