FORTHCOMING COURSE DATES: 

28-30th May 

Please note that courses will only be delivered if minimum delegate numbers are met   

OVERVIEW
Candidates who have already completed the full CompEx Electrical course should take the Refresher course every five years.

If the certificate is no longer current (i.e. outside five years), then the full Ex01-Ex04 course must be completed.

The Comp’Ex Refresher Course is intended for personnel who wish to update and/or refresh their knowledge and skills of electrical and instrumentation crafts within potentially explosive atmospheres in onshore and offshore situations.

The Refresher course contains training and assessment that, upon satisfactory completion, will lead to the renewal of the certificate of core competence for those personnel who have previously completed the corresponding modules (EX01, EX02, EX03, EX04) of the basic Comp’Ex course.

Please note that the course has been substantially changed and updated and is now a three day course. This allows time for new practical exams and longer theory exams.

Candidates who are successful in both the theory and practical assessments will receive a CompEx E- Certificate in Core Competence. Candidates are required to take the CompEx Electrical Refresher course every five years in order to remain current.
