Elite Offshore offers OPITO-approved Authorized Gas Tester (AGT) training through e-learning in collaboration with Myntra Global. This comprehensive program equips participants with the essential skills and knowledge to ensure safety in industrial environments, particularly during confined space entry and operations.
The training covers crucial topics such as understanding the roles and responsibilities of an AGT, gas detection and monitoring equipment, the hazards and properties of gases, safe systems of work, and confined space entry procedures. Participants also learn to interpret gas test results and document their findings accurately.
Delivered through an interactive e-learning platform, the course allows flexibility and convenience, making it ideal for offshore workers with varying schedules. The program includes practical simulations and exercises to provide hands-on experience. By completing this training, participants receive industry-recognized certification, demonstrating their competency and commitment to maintaining high safety standards in their workplaces.
