As a member of UKATA, Boss Training offers safety training services along with four distinct Asbestos Training courses. Whilst our UKATA Asbestos Awareness Training Course is sufficient for anyone who could potentially come into contact with asbestos, those who undertake short duration work with non-friable materials must complete the Non Licensed Asbestos Removal Course (also known as Category B Asbestos Training).

The course consists of both theory and practical elements.

Theory training will be delivered on a whole host of issues, including the law, work which could result in asbestos exposure and control measures just to name a few in our Non-Licensed Asbestos Removal training course.

The practical training includes the donning of and removal of coveralls and masks, as well as a multitude of specific simulations based on the tasks delegates carry out onsite.

The course consists of theory training followed by an assessment to check delegates understanding. There is then a practical element that is based upon a Training Needs Analysis carried out before the course.

  • The law surrounding asbestos
  • Work which could result in asbestos exposure
