Outcome 2 The hazards associated with compressed air emergency breathing systems;
Outcome 3 Use of the Compressed Air Emergency Breathing System (CA-EBS).
Theory: 45 min Practice: 30 min Total Contact Time: 75 min
Technical Reference: OPITO Registration Code 5904
Exam
Learners will be assessed against the learning outcomes specified using direct observation and written questions. Learners will be assessed using written questions for UNIT OIS-77 (Outcome 1-2). Learners will be assessed using direct observation of practical exercises for UNIT OIS-77 (Outcome 3). To achieve the Dry (CA-EBS) Initial Deployment Training the learners will need to complete the mandatory unit, correctly answering all written questions and successfully completing all practical exercises specified.
Validity: 4 years.
It is recommended that training be revalidated with the appropriate OPITO Further Offshore Emergency Training (FOET) certificate upon expiry of their current BOSIET or FOET Certificate. This ensures the relevant and appropriate knowledge and skills of the learner are maintained on a recurring basis.
