'Intertek’s CompEx training definitely helped in my day-to-day role, getting me to think differently and spot regulatory compliance issues. The practical aspect is excellent too; it helped me understand what needed doing in terms of hazardous locations.'
'Videos and real-world examples helped bring the topics to life. I would recommend the Ex Foundation course to anyone involved in ATEX and working in explosive atmospheres, it was a real eye-opener and I learned a great deal.'
