Course Details
Our SCBA training is provided as part of our Confined Space Rescue training and the equipment familiarization elements; however, it can be delivered as a stand-alone training session as well. Participants will learn the skills required to safely inspect, maintain, and operate a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).
We prefer to train your workers using the equipment they are likely to use, but if required, we can provide the training using our SCBA equipment if you do not have your own.
Please note that this is an equipment familiarization course. Quantitative fit testing is required to use an SCBA, which is not provided as part of this course. If you require quantitative fit testing for your SCBA, this must be done as a separate event in accordance with CSA Z94.4
If this program is being taken as part of the Confined Space Rescue Program, additional material will be covered that may extend the timing of this program. Note: If not part of Confined Space Rescue Training – contact us if combining courses.
