In addition, we are holding Works with Non-Licensed ACM’s training is made up of the ½ day Asbestos Awareness followed by a ½ day session covering non-licensed ACM’s. Various asbestos products are considered low risk and therefore non-licensed, such as asbestos cement, floor tiles and texture coating. Such materials have been deemed low risk by the HSE and therefore any remedial works do not require a license. The materials still harbor some risk and therefore those undertaking such remedial works must be trained in working with such ACM’s. The cost of the course is a competitive £165 per person plus VAT.

The courses are delivered as an oral presentation with power point slides and written material. The training is provided by fully qualified, time served and friendly professionals.
