Asbestos awareness course

[chille]

Was wondering how many of you people have been on one of these?

If you have could you let me know you're thoughts on it please.

Cheers

I have'nt but it's got to be worth it...

Just done a job for a women whose husband was a sparks who worked alot down in the underground, died a year ago of aspestos.

I have, what to say ? it's very informative, by that I mean I found out where and what asbestos 'could' be found in, frightening in other ways, when you hear the statistics of trades being killed by this year after year, add that to the fact, that no matter what people 'claim' you can not tell by sight whether a material has asbestos in it, you can not tell the difference between the various colours etc

Thanks for the replys
I have done the course and whilst found it very interesting I struggled to understand how it will make my life safer, as Alan has just said there is no way of knowing unless a test is done.
How many domestic clients would be willing to pay for it? ? none I think
