Test the organisation's response to first response team training under conditions that are less than ideal.
Managing First Response Teams and Training Them on Complex Scenarios
A structured, applied course in first response team training — designed to be used the week you return.
Course Overview
The cost of an incident involving first response team training lands on production, insurance, licence and reputation at once. Safety performance on team training degrades quietly during periods when nothing goes wrong. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in this strand of occupational health and safety before they become incidents. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for first response team training. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of this area of occupational health and safety rather than to abstract argument. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in team training that were visible long before the incident. Participants leave with a method for first response team training, not a set of opinions about it. Ambition around team training outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to this aspect of occupational health and safety that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
