Universitat de València Master's Degree in Health and Safety students will have practical sessions in confined environments for all different scenarios possible.
Universitat de València Master's Degree in Health and Safety students have taken practical sessions in confined environments in collaboration with CUALTIS S.L.U.
The sessions are part of the master's degree's curriculum with a theorical part that would later be implemented in CUALTIS S.L.U. mobile facilities that were available for Universitat de València's students.
Practical sessions are vital in the education of the upcoming Health and Safety personnel.
“Students learn by practice teamwork in a specifically risky environment, putting proper procedures and evauations in use.”
A confined environment is any space with limitted entrances and exits and poor ventilation in which toxic or flammable substances might accumuulate, be oxygen-deprived and that are not planned to have constant human presence.
The risks in these spaces are multiple, as in addition to the accumulation of toxic or flammable substances and lack of oxygen, there are also those caused by narrowness, discomfort due to working postures, limited lighting, etc. Another aspect to highlight is the amplification of some risks, such as noise, which is much higher than that which the same equipment would generate in an open space, due to the transmission of vibrations.
The theoretical and practical training model facilitates the transmission of knowledge, as well as the integrated vision of prevention that a professional in the sector needs.
