Intermediate programme
Improving working conditions and workforce competence alongside emission performance, as one programme.
Occupational exposure and environmental emission come from the same sources in a cement plant, and the people most exposed are the ones who operate the controls. This week treats them together: workplace exposure assessment for dust, noise and heat, the controls that reduce both occupational and environmental release, and the competence framework that determines whether those controls are operated properly. Programme design closes the week, since none of this holds without one.
It runs 5 times over the published calendar, in 3 cities and live online. Every date is the same programme with the same content and the same certificate.
Occupational hygiene and safety staff, environmental managers, training and competence managers, and plant managers running improvement programmes.
This is an intermediate level programme. It assumes you are working in or moving into the area it covers, and it is built around your own material rather than a case study. If you are unsure, ask an advisor before registering rather than after.
Ask an advisorShort input, then work. Across 5 days of roughly 6 teaching hours each, the balance sits deliberately with the second: a programme where the trainer talks for six hours produces notes rather than capability.
Exercises run on situations delegates bring, not on a case study written for a different organisation in a different decade.
Small enough that everybody is asked something. Executive programmes are capped tighter still.
The difficult conversation, the challenged assumption, the decision defended out loud. Judgement is not built by watching.
Each day ends with a thing you can use on Monday rather than a slide deck you will not reopen.
A GATI certificate recording what you attended, issued after the programme has run and attendance has been taken. Attending at least 80 per cent of the days earns a certificate of completion; attending less earns a certificate of attendance stating exactly what was attended.
Every certificate carries a code that anybody can check against GATI's own record, which is what makes it worth holding. It records participation. This site will not imply one it does not have.
Register on a published date, or tell an advisor what you need and they will come back with something specific rather than a brochure.
