New Dates for IMIAL Level 3 Automotive Refrigerant Handling Qualifications
In response to local business requests, Open Road have introduced more dates for the refrigerant handling courses to train and certificate local technicians to meet the needs of new legislation that comes into effect on 4th July 2010.
The course has been specifically designed to address the issues surrounding the safe handling and use of refrigerant gases in automotive air conditioning systems and meets the required standard to fulfill the EU F Gas Regulation (EC842/2006 & Annex to regulation EC307/2008).
Training is split over two sessions, a 3 hour (18.00 - 21.00) evening session on Monday, followed by either a further evening session on a Wednesday or Friday to suit the candidate, or candidates can opt for an evening session on a Friday followed by a full day on a Saturday.
These times have been agreed after consultation with local businesses and employers to reduce the impact of training on productive work time.
The qualification achieved for successfully completing the course is the IMIAL Level 3 Award in Automotive Refrigerant Handling and the key areas covered in the training include:-
- Health and Safety requirements
- Working safely on vehicle Air Conditioning systems
- Specific legislative requirements
- Fundamental principles and operation of vehicle Air Conditioning systems
