New Round of First Aid and SGP courses

Enrolments are now open for Printing Industries NSW next one-day intensive First Aid course on 16 June.

Printing Industries National Manager, Learning and Development, Ian Walz says companies wishing to upskill their nominated first aid staff should register as soon as possible, since all previous courses filled quickly.

“All our previous courses have been fully subscribed. To cope with demand we introduced additional on site courses for companies with numbers of employees they wanted to have trained.

“Considerable interest was also expressed during PrintEx, so it is quite apparent that companies take their responsibilities in this area very seriously and have been very appreciative of this intensive one-day course.”

As an assessment-based program, all attendees to the Apply First Aid Course receive a nationally accredited First Aid Certificate and training manual.

The next round of Sustainable Green Print (SGP) certification training programs for NSW has also been finalized for 11 August (Level 1) and 12 August (Level 2).

Level 1 is suitable for the small company starting down the compliance path as it focuses on waste, storage and handling and recycling.

“It covers record-keeping, compliance and cleaner production practices and waste management. It includes a simple environmental management system (EMS) that is your pathway to environmental sustainability.

“Level 2 introduces additional levels of management and control including the tracking of waste streams and brings in a focus on your energy consumption and carbon footprint.

“Key performance indicators are provided covering waste, recycling, energy, water, incident management, storage and handling of printing chemicals, energy and air emissions.”
