Laser training:Course target participants

The course is ideal for operators, managers, laser protection supervisors (LPS)/laser safety officers (LSO) or those planning to undertake these roles. We can also provide shorter laser safety training sessions or update courses where appropriate.

Laser training:Legal Requirements

Whilst adequate safety training has been a legal requirement for some time, the optical radiation regulations (2010) specifically identify training for those involved with lasers and intense light sources. Core of knowledge courses are also a specific condition for the special treatments licenses required by many London councils.

The term 'core of knowledge' is defined in the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) guidance publication, DB2008(03), April 2008. Our courses are approved by the British Medical Laser Association (BMLA).
