Who is the course for

This course is for individuals working within the area of healthcare ventilation systems design, such as mechanical design engineers, clerks of works, capital project staff, estates managers.

Existing ventilation authorised persons would also benefit from this course due to the more in-depth level of design compliance than the content covers in the VAP course. The course would also benefit companies working for the NHS and private hospitals such as project managers for main contractors and M+E contractors.

Aims & objectives
