About Legionella Responsible Person Training

Classroom and On-site

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has guidelines and instructions (ACop L8 and HSG 274) that specifically state the lack of Legionella Training is a key factor in Legionella outbreaks and in controlling the risks associated with managing water systems.

This Legionella Responsible Person Training Course with Cooling Systems is the 2-day version of our HXT-02 Legionella Responsible Person Course, as this course spends the additional day covering high-risk systems, such as Evaporative Cooling Towers. If you have such systems YOU MUST complete this course rather than the 1-day course.

This City and Guilds Accredited Legionella Responsible Person Course with Cooling Systems is delivered in a classroom environment at one of our nationwide training centres or on-site at your premises. Alternatively, this course can be completed online via 1 x 3.5hr and 1 x 2.5hrs live remote training sessions.

Live Virtual Classroom

All of our ‘Learn Anywhere‘ Legionella Courses are delivered via an innovative and user-friendly live virtual classroom platform. Our platform works just as well on a tablet, laptop or PC. Foremost, you can fully engage with the trainer throughout the course. We are here to offer you support even before and after the course is finished.
