This training addresses the theoretical component of confined space entry. It does not give you the practical skills required to enter a confined safely and as such is only applicable for refresher training not initial entry training.

It is unlawful to instruct a person to enter a confined space if they have not completed in-person training with an accredited trainer. Obeying such an instruction could endanger your safety and the safety of those around you.

This course will provide you with information about:

the legal requirement for confined space entry
what confined spaces are and why people enter them
entry permits
hazards associated with confined space entry
methods of controlling confined space hazards
emergency response procedures, and
the different types of personal protective equipment that can be used when working in confined spaces

This course has been reviewed by a recognised subject matter expert.

It has been designed to comply with best practice national health and safety standards. Terminology has been chosen for clarity and ease of comprehension across jurisdictions. For example, ‘employer’ has been used to signify the broader term ‘PCBU’, while ‘WHS’ represents both work and occupational health and safety.

ALTHOUGH BASED ON THE ELEMENTS, THIS IS NOT A NATIONALLY RECOGNISED COURSE. THIS VOC COURSE CAN ONLY TO BE USED FOR REFRESHER PURPOSES IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY ACHIEVED A STATEMENT OF ATTAINMENT.

Note: Whilst a Statement of Attainments do not expire, different worksites have different policies and requirements of what refresher training should be and what is acceptable. Queensland sites, for example, typically want face to face only. You should check if you are unsure as there are no refunds available once you have downloaded certificates. This refresher course is a Verification of Competency undertaken by a Registered Training Organisation (RTO Code 91826).

If you have not previously done this course, to be deemed competent, you must complete an in-person training session an accredited trainer with a registered training organisation.

Course MappingReceiving a Nationally Recognised OutcomeAssessment RequirementsPrerequisitesCertificate of Completion

This course directly aligns with the RIIWHS202E unit of competency from the Australian Resources and Infrastructure Industry training package. It encapsulates all requisite skills and knowledge required to enter and work in confined spaces, making it the perfect choice for workers seeking to refresh their competency.

Upon successful completion of this course, you will receive a Verification of Competency (VOC) issued by our partner RTO AlertForce (Code 91826). This certificate is not nationally recognised, but is widely acceptable by many organisations as suitable refresher training, demonstrating that you have been deemed refreshed in the necessary skills and knowledge associated with confined space work. As part of the VOC process you are required to produce evidence of previous Nationally Recognised training and/or industry participation.

The course includes an online assessment to verify your theoretical understanding and application of the training. The assessment has been designed to ensure that you meet all the theory requirements of the RIIWHS202E unit of competency (or previous equivalents).

Participants are required to upload 100 points of ID and a previously issued Statement of Attainment (or wallet card) by an RTO not more than 3 years ago, or present a CV showcasing industry relevance.
Prior completion of the RIIWHS202D or RIIWHS202E Enter and Work in Confined Spaces Training in a face-to-face setting is a prerequisite for this refresher course.

After successfully completing the course and assessment, you'll receive a Verification of Competency as a certificate and also a Digital ID. This certificate serves as proof that you have refreshed your skills and are competent in working safely within confined spaces, as per the RIIWHS202E unit of competency guidelines.

Student Reviews

I completed my initial training a while ago, is this online course enough to update my skills and knowledge?

Yes, this online VOC Refresher course (RIIWHS202E) is designed specifically to help individuals who have previously completed the face-to-face training to update their knowledge and practices in accordance with the latest best practice safety standards and regulations. You should have completed your face to face training course or refresher within the last 3 years and / or been a regular industry participant during that time

How do I know this online course will be accepted by my employer?

The course is aligned with the nationally recognised RIIWHS202E unit of competency, making it widely accepted across various industries. However, we recommend consulting with your employer or HR department to confirm before you enrol if you are in doubt.

Can I take the assessment multiple times if I don't pass it the first time?

Yes, you're allowed to retake the assessment if you don't pass initially. We are committed to ensuring you fully understand the content and can apply the knowledge effectively in your workplace.

Can non-Australian residents complete this course?

Absolutely. The course is available online, which means anyone, anywhere can take it as long as they've previously completed the initial RIIWHS202E training. However, the course is based on Australian safety standards and regulations and again you should check with your employer if you are in doubt.

I work in an industry that isn’t typically associated with confined spaces. Would this course still be beneficial?

Can I start the online course and finish it later, or does it need to be completed in one sitting?
