Pressure systems contain large amounts of energy, and if they are not managed correctly, failures can result in serious injury, equipment damage, or downtime. Training ensures you understand safe operating limits, recognise potential hazards, comply with legal requirements, and know how to identify and manage risks when working with steam or pressurised equipment.
These courses are ideal for engineering staff, maintenance technicians, operators, and appointed responsible persons who work with or oversee steam boilers and pressure systems. The Steam Awareness Course is perfect for those new to steam systems, while the Boiler Authorised Person and Boiler Skilled Person courses are aimed at those responsible for the safe operation, inspection, and compliance of pressure systems under UK regulations.
Our courses, especially boiler authorised person training, are designed to align with the UK Pressure Systems Safety Regulations (PSSR) 2000. You’ll learn about written schemes of examination, safe operating limits, routine inspections, and the duties of appointed personnel. These regulations set the standards for competence when working with pressurised systems, ensuring safety and compliance in the workplace.
