Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Practical sessions are integral to this course, providing hands-on experience in leak detection, fire suppression, and emergency response coordination. Learners will apply theoretical knowledge in realistic scenarios to build confidence and competence.

Practical Activities

• Gas Detection and Monitoring — Learners will use portable gas detectors to identify simulated LPG leaks and monitor gas concentrations in various scenarios. (3h)
• Fire Suppression and Cooling Techniques — Learners will practice using fire extinguishers, hose streams, and cooling techniques on controlled LPG fires. (5h)
• Leak Control and Emergency Shutdown — Learners will simulate controlling LPG leaks by operating emergency valves and using leak-sealing equipment. (4h)
• Tabletop Simulation: Coordinated Response — Learners will participate in a full-scale tabletop exercise, coordinating with mock emergency services to manage a complex LPG incident. (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.
