Overview

Legionella and Legionnaires' Disease Awareness Training

Legionella is a bacterial disease that is similar to pneumonia to some extent. As the spread of Legionella and Legionnaires Disease in the UK is minimal, public awareness of the disease is also low. Every year, 300 to 500 people are infected with this disease, which they mostly contract from abroad. Legionella bacteria can breed in any water source. It could be in your home or workplace. And, as it is a contagious disease, we should be well aware of this disease.

The Legionella and Legionnaires’ Disease Awareness Training Course will teach students about the health risks caused by Legionella. As a result, you can implement appropriate risk assessment procedures and appropriate control measures to avoid infection and contamination on the premises. Employers and managers will also be better equipped with knowledge about their legal responsibilities and the health risks created by Legionella bacteria.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
