Custom Permit To Work Issuer / Receiver Course
A custom course may benefit anyone who has already completed a Permit To Work Issuer/Receiver course because it can have a more specific training approach.
Instead of going over already learnt information, a custom course allows the time to be better spent concentrating on the specific needs of the workplace and the workers for example:
- Mock up work situations and scenarios
- Photo discussion groups from current workplaces
- Practical permit issue and receive paperwork process
- Understanding where permits fit within safety systems
- Virtual reality VR training to expose students without risk
With a custom course you are not limited to a specific timeframe, topics or program. The course content can be tailored to your specific requirements. You will be expanding your skills based on the foundation knowledge you already have.
A custom course will be designed uniquely for you and it starts with a consult so we can understand your business and come up with the best learning program.
The duration and maximum numbers of people on the course will depend on your requirements and the complexity of the course content. We prioritise keeping everyone safe and maximising the best learning environment. A good instructor to student ratio is important especially if you would like to run through complex situations.

All students who are deemed competent will be issued with a Skill Lab Certificate of Competency (COC) card and certificate.

Our teaching style
Some people learn more effectively with verbal, written or visual teaching, others are more practical and learn by doing.
At the outset of each course we make an assessment on what type of learner each student is and then teach the course in a way that maximises learning and retention.
It's taken over a decade of experience to hone this method and it works very well for most students.
After Care
We're there for you after the course has been delivered to answer any questions that you may have. We welcome emails or phone calls, sometimes we even have people sending photos to explain a question. Whatever it is, we are here to help.
