Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

The practicals are designed to give learners hands-on experience in hazard identification, risk assessment, and operational control planning. Through group exercises and real-world scenarios, learners will apply ISO 45001 requirements to simulate workplace situations, reinforcing theoretical knowledge and building practical skills.

Practical Activities

• Hazard Identification Walkthrough — Learners conduct a simulated workplace walkthrough to identify hazards and document them using a standardized form. (4h)
• Risk Assessment and Control Planning — Using a case scenario, learners perform a risk assessment using a risk matrix and develop control measures based on the hierarchy of controls. (4h)
• Incident Investigation Simulation — Learners participate in a simulated incident investigation, gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and identifying root causes. (4h)
• Emergency Response Drill — Learners plan and execute a mock emergency drill, evaluating the effectiveness of an emergency response plan. (4h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Component	Out of	Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
Final Total	—	100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.
