Practical learning
Assess a fictional task using a supplied training method. Separate hazards from consequences, compare control options and record residual-risk ownership and review triggers.
Assessment approach
Knowledge checks assess understanding, while a practical case output tests application. Review criteria are accuracy, use of evidence, recognition of limitations, clear responsibility and feasibility. The facilitator provides feedback; joining instructions confirm attendance requirements and any formal pass criteria before delivery.
