Overview

Asbestos Awareness - Asbestos Awareness for Architects and Designers

Asbestos is probably the most dangerous building material ever used. In addition to those directly involved in the construction of buildings, professionals in related fields are also impacted by this change. It was extensively used in the 20th century. Testing has shown that the risk of mesothelioma from just a few days' exposure to asbestos is much higher than any other known carcinogen.

Thousands of people die every year due to asbestos exposure. It was used as a construction material until 2000 and is still a problem today.

The Control of Asbestos Regulations (CAR) applies to employers, employees, self-employed persons, and duty holders. It covers all work with asbestos. Employers should provide enough information, training, and instruction for their employees. The regulations ensure a system in place to protect the health and safety of employees and public members arising from asbestos exposure.

This Asbestos awareness for architects and designers training course will teach you the steps of conducting an asbestos risk assessment and the legal requirements of architects. It is designed to help architects and designers unaware of the dangers of this material or who think it is long gone. It will provide brief information on how asbestos developed, what health risks remain for architects, designers, contractors, and occupants in buildings still using asbestos products, types of products containing asbestos remaining in use today, countries where it remains legal to mine and manufactures asbestos products, etc.

It also covers how architects and designers can work safely with asbestos-containing materials, how CAR applies to them, and the steps they should take to avoid breaching CAR.

This online Asbestos awareness for architects and designers video-based course will deliver a lot of information about asbestos risks, including working with it correctly and safely. It is crucial to recognise asbestos, where it is used, minimise the risks and understand the legislation about working with asbestos.

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.
