The new Advanced Laboratory Technician Apprenticeship will include three asbestos related modules – asbestos surveying, air monitoring and asbestos bulk analysis – during the two year apprenticeship period.

On completion of the apprenticeship, the student will obtain the Level 3 Laboratory Technician Apprenticeship qualifications, as well as receiving three Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH) Level 3 qualifications – one for each of the asbestos related modules – all of which are recognised by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS).

Richard Burton, Head of Qualifications at RSPH said; “RSPH is delighted that ATaC have helped to develop this new apprenticeship: especially as it utilises a range of RSPH qualifications that have been produced as a result of an excellent and successful partnership between RSPH and ATaC that stretches back a number of years.”

Further information on the Advanced (level 3) Laboratory Technician Apprenticeship (Industrial-Asbestos) is available on the ATaC Apprenticeship web page.
