What is Asbestos?
Asbestos is a mineral that was used in buildings for insulation and fireproofing. It is made up of long thin fibers which can cause serious health problems if inhaled. All types of Asbestos were banned by law in 1999 however asbestos still exists in some of these older buildings.
Who is it for?
The UKATA Category “A” Asbestos Awareness course is mandatory for anyone liable to encounter or disturb Asbestos Containing Materials.
Under The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, employers must provide anyone who is likely to work on or disturb asbestos materials with information regarding the location, condition and correct safety practices when working with asbestos materials. Contractors who may disturb asbestos are responsible for obtaining this certification prior to them undertaking their work duties.
On successful completion of the online course, you’re instantly provided with a nationally recognised Asbestos Awareness Training certificate which is logged centrally by the UK Asbestos Training Association (UKATA).

The content is good, but as other reviewers have mentioned the slide timers make this horrendous. I appreciate the course may have to be 2 hours in duration to receive the UKATA accreditation, but if you spend one hour of that just waiting for a timer to elapse in order to proceed then it is a waste of time. I would rather there be more content and use my time reading the additional content without a timer (i.e using my time productively) than be sat looking at a timer getting more and more frustrated. Minor point but I was also surprised by the number of typo’s!

It’s a UKATA requirement that any Category A Asbestos course has a minimum duration. This is to ensure all the essential information is fully communicated.

Restrictions can make this test unbearable.

Very good training tool, however, time constraints were a bit too long to wait for the next page. Would definitely recommend this for ease of use and content.

I had previously attended a UKATA taught course and only needed a refresher however, with time restraints I redid the whole course which took about the same amount of time. The course was very informative.

I was a little scepticle about e learning but having bought and used the Asbestos Awareness course and completing myself i was extremely impressed with the content and quality . The questions are not straightfoward and therefore actually make the operative pay attention and learn . I would certainly recommend .

Well laid out and easy to use. Everyone has a different learning pace and it would be better if you were able choose to move on once you have read each section as time delays a little too long.

Excellent online portal. The course was well laid out and easy to use. Some of the time bound delays were too much but bearable. Many Thanks

The on-line course was very detailed and informative. My only critism is I made a simple input error in completing the 3 question test at the end of Module 1 and had to sit through the whole Module again, ther was no shortcut to re-enter the correct answer to one of the questions. No doubt this is a UKATA requirement.
