Course Overview
P604 LEV Course is an advanced proficiency LEV Training module. It is usually presented as a live Webinar/On-Line event using Zoom (although some dates may be available face-to-face at Leicester Hilton Hotel).
At checkout – there is no need to pay at that stage. We will send out Invoices approx 5-6 weeks prior to the course start date.
P604 builds on the existing knowledge and expertise gained by delegates who will have previously completed the P601 LEV Training course module.
The tutors on this highly inter-active course are Bill Cassells and Hazel Griffiths. Those who have attended the OXYL8 P601, P602 etc LEV courses will know that Bill & Hazel bring a fresh, lively approach to the subject. They both have extensive knowledge of all things LEV — and their delivery is well-known for being enthusiastic, non-stuffy and entertaining.
The P604 LEV course is particularly suited to LEV topic specialists, Health and Safety or Occupational Hygiene professionals, Managers, Supervisors and Building Services engineers (who have completed P601).
This is a 4-day LEV training course with self-study elements (in evenings). The single (open book) Exam, which is taken on-line for webinars, consists of a mix of 35 short answer Theory and Practical questions.
Pre-requisites
BOHS do require that delegates for P604 should have completed P601 (or at a minimum – have passed both P601 LEV course exams and be preparing their Reports submissions) prior to attending.
Delegates should also possess a good working knowledge of HSE’s Guidance on LEV, HSG258 and must also be competent in basic maths/algebra (areas, square roots etc.)
No other specialist knowledge is required.
Who should attend?
Engineers, supervisors, managers, health and safety professional and technical staff who have day to day dealings with the specification, design, testing, contract management, and occupational hygiene aspects of LEV plant and who have previously completed the P601 LEV course module.
Towards professional recognition?
Success in P604 can be combined with other BOHS modules e.g. P601, P602, P603 and W201 towards gaining the BOHS ‘Certificate of Competence in Control’ qualification which permits successful candidate to use the letters ‘CoC Control’ after their name. See BOHS for more details.
