Certificate in Electrical Health and Safety – Level 2 Certification

Getting electrocuted is undeniably a nightmare for every single one of us. We all know the times we have prayed while handling electricity or even switching on something we are not familiar with. But what if we were to face such a miserable accident? What if we or a family member or a colleague gets an electric shock? Should we not know what has to be done to revive them back or at least the first aid for electric shock? Knowing what exactly to do in such a situation can save a loved one’s life and this Certificate in Electrical Health and Safety – Level 2 has been developed to teach you just that.

Although this course aims at everyone interested in learning about electrical safety, it can offer the most advantage for professionals in a workplace, as their expertise in dealing with unfortunate situations can greatly help them with their careers and work life. This course will not just show you what has to be done in case of an electrical accident, but will also educate you about the measures that can be taken to prevent such accidents.

The course will look into the electrical safety legislation, personal protective equipment, effects of electric shocks, unsafe/safe electrical situations, overall process of risk assessment and first aid in an interesting manner so that you can easily manage such a situation with confidence.

The course has been endorsed under the ABC Awards and Certa Awards Quality Licence Scheme. This means that Global Edulink* has undergone an external quality check to ensure that the organisation and the courses it offers, meet defined quality criteria. The completion of this course alone does not lead to a regulated qualification* but may be used as evidence of knowledge and skills gained. The Learner Unit Summary may be used as evidence towards Recognition of Prior Learning if you wish to progress your studies in this subject. To this end the learning outcomes of the course have been benchmarked at Level 2 against level descriptors published by Ofqual, to indicate the depth of study and level of demand/complexity involved in successful completion by the learner.

The course itself has been designed by Global Edulink* to meet specific learners’ and/or employers’ requirements, which cannot be satisfied through current regulated qualifications. ABC Awards & Certa Awards endorsement involves robust and rigorous quality audits by external auditors to ensure quality is continually met. A review of courses is carried out as part of the endorsement process.
