Overview

The essential skills and knowledge for Display Screen Equipment (DSE) risk assessments.

Provide supervisors and employees with the knowledge of the DSE risk assessment process as well as the skills required to undertake a suitable and sufficient risk assessment.

Description

The Health and Safety (Display Screen Equipment) (DSE) Regulations 1992 require employers to assess both the workstation and the working environment of employees who regularly use computer workstations and display screen equipment.

Our Level 2 Award in DSE Risk Assessment course is delivered in one day and aims to provide supervisors and employees with the knowledge of the DSE risk assessment process as well as the skills required to undertake a suitable and sufficient risk assessment.

On completion of the course, delegates will:

  • Understand the importance of DSE risk assessments
  • Understand the principles of controlling the risks from DSE workstations
  • Understand how a DSE risk assessment is undertaken

While the Level 2 Award in DSE Risk Assessment is a stand-alone qualification, it allows for lateral progression to other British Safety Council Level 2 qualifications covering specific risk assessments in COSHH, Fire and Manual Handling, and vertical progression to the Level 3 Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health.

Learning with the British Safety Council will enable delegates to benefit from our extensive experience in health, safety and environmental management, acquired over the last 60 years. During this time, we’ve educated people from all over the world and have developed expert tuition methods, using the most modern teaching techniques.

Assessment

The Level 2 Award in DSE Risk Assessment course is assessed by means of an online exam. This relates directly to the delegate’s workplace and tests the application of learning in a practical context.

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.
