Chief Warden
Our course is designed to be highly practical, emphasising the development of skills that can be directly applied in real emergency situations. The Chief Warden training course meets the requirements of Australian Standard AS 3745:2010, which outlines the planning for emergencies in facilities applicable to all workplaces. Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of emergency procedures and will engage in extensive practical drills to effectively control workplace emergencies. This hands-on approach ensures that participants are well-prepared to handle a variety of emergency scenarios with confidence and competence.
