All Health, Safety and Regulated Facilities courses

A microbiological safety cabinet (MSC) is a vital piece of equipment that helps to prevent exposure to biological hazards. All containment laboratory users and their supervisors should know how to use MSCs effectively, what the standards are for the different levels of containment, and how the facilities are managed. This course will help both users and managers understand their responsibilities in creating a safe working area and provide both theory and practical knowledge on the safe and effective use of tissue culture (Class II) cabinets.

Anyone who is or will be a first-time user or supervisor of x-ray equipment or other equipment generating ionising radiation is expected to attend this course before they begin work. Existing users and supervisors of these items of equipment who are new to the University should also attend.

The Working at Height training is intended for those working at height and supervisors or managers that ask staff to complete this training, regardless of whether they are working at height themselves or not.

Please contact Neil Stanford to arrange training in your department and discuss any bespoke requirements.
