This course replaces the former OSSA-approved Confined Space training courses.
Designed for those responsible for the entry, planning and supervising of confined space activities; and for those administering employees and/or monitoring entry into restricted or confined spaces.

This course teaches participants to identify, understand and mitigate the potential hazards of working in restricted and confined spaces.
