Our approach
+IMPAC's Permit Issuer Refresher (Pre-recorded Webinar) training approach
IMPAC uses this Permit Issuer Refresher (Pre-recorded Webinar) to bring experienced learners back to the parts of permit issuing that matter most in real work. The training revisits when a permit is required, what needs to be checked before work starts, how controls are verified, and how permits should be monitored, closed, and audited once the job is underway or complete.
Because this is refresher training, the emphasis stays on practical judgement rather than starting from scratch. Learners work back through permit-to-work activities linked to hot work, confined space entry, work at height, and excavation, so the content stays connected to the decisions permit issuers are expected to make on site.
The webinar keeps the focus on maintaining consistent permit standards, strengthening control checks, and recognising where routine work pressures can weaken permit discipline over time.
