Overview
Diploma in Chemical Handling - Level 4
Although some chemicals are harmless, there are some chemicals that are strong enough to pose mild or life threating injuries. Therefore, it is important for forensic scientists, laboratory technicians, chemists and other professionals working with chemicals to handle them in a proper manner, and this Diploma in Chemical Handling at QLS Level 4 (USA Standards) has been developed exactly for that. This chemical handling training course will extensively prep you up to handle chemicals in a proper manner and to avoid laboratory mishaps.
This comprehensive chemical safety training course will discuss about chemical handling and its importance. You will get to understand the importance of hazard communication in preventing accidents, after which the course curriculum will explore the United Nations Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS).
Once you get into terms with GHS Physical Hazards and Pyrophrorics, this chemical management course will move onto educate you about the NEW OSHA Hazard communication standard (HCS). This course will also focus on the different types of chemical hazards, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and the department specific hazard communication. By the completion of this chemical handling certificate course, you will possess all the necessary knowledge and skills needed to handle chemicals like a pro.
