  18. JOIFF Accreditation Process

  19. Preferred main location for Training – Own Site • Financial and logistical advantages • using own equipment • exposure to own Risks • better control over timing • use of Site’s own Training facilities • this is where any incident will occur and will need to be dealt with • Possible disadvantages - if not properly planned • lack of availability of planned Training Programme • lack of availability of suitably accredited Instructors • is the Training provided recognised / accredited ?

  20. Accredited Training on Site • Competency Based Training Personal Portfolio • divided into UNITS and ELEMENTS to be carried out on the Company Site by suitable Assessors / Instructors plus • training e.g. practical Firefighting, to be carried out at an approved Training Establishment where the training facilities are not available on site The most effective form of Competency Based Training is a mixture ofon-siteTraining building on core content to address site-specific issues andoff-site Training to provide specialist competencies / for exposure to others to keep Training FRESH and RELEVANT
