DSEAR Training Our DSEAR training course incorporating 18 chemistry experiments, is an IOSH approved and certified DSEAR training course that aims to demonstrate the dangers associated with handling flammable liquids and hazardous substances.
I attended the monthly meet yesterday and would like to thank you for one of the best, and most entertaining, sessions I have seen in a long while. It was most entertaining and extremely informative. I am sure I speak for many other safety professionals who, during their training, only get to read or be told about the fire triangle, flammable substances, and explosions. The session you delivered yesterday provided a fantastic insight into the subject and gave practical demonstrations of such things as LEL and UEL.
Just a quick note to say thank-you for your excellent presentation and demonstration yesterday - definitely provided the high impact that we were looking for in terms of a training / awareness event for the attendees. We will definitely be exploring opportunities to invite you back to reach a wider audience here on the Camp.
