Atex Safety Service firmly believes in the value of people’s training growth especially in terms of safety against explosions.
Theoretical, practical and combined courses addressed to ATEX safety. We organize courses in videoconference or in presence.
The multidisciplinarity of the courses offered and the completeness of the information provided allow us to train all those involved in the world of safety: employers, safety managers, consultants, builders, designers, installers, maintenance workers and Control Authority’s inspectors.
In addition to fulfilling the training obligation (Dlgs. 81/2008 and amendments), our participants are stimulated and involved with an interactive method which includes the examination of practical cases in order to get skills to be later concretely expendable. The training is held by tutors with certified competence, with a constantly updated technical preparation and recognized professional and teaching skills.
Participants will receive Training material and a certificate of attendance.
Depending on your needs, our courses have different duration and are available with different characteristics and addresses (electrical, mechanical, installation, maintenance and repair); the courses can be carried out by videoconference, at our facilities or at yours.
