Who Should Take this Course?

Online Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) training is designed for persons who may be required to perform their work duties in a safe and controlled manner while wearing a self-contained breathing apparatus. These individuals need the knowledge, skills and regular training that will allow them to maintain their proficiency in using SCBA to the point that the use of such equipment becomes second nature in the field.

Online SCBA training is self-paced, with each lesson and module led by an experienced workplace safety training instructor, on video, who covers the course content in plain language. The instructor is supported by a number of multi-media tools, such as live action video sequences, photographs, animations, text and interactive 3D models that provide "virtual hands-on" experience with the required pre-service checks. A printable certificate of completion will be provided on fulfillment of all course requirements.

The online SCBA training course has been developed to provide participants with a sound understanding of the components, use and limitations of the SCBA. Participants will also learn how to perform a Visual Inspection, Leak Test and Alarm/Function Check, and how to properly don and doff the SCBA.
