Course in Hot Work

The Authorized Training in Hot Work® has been established since 1990 and provides the knowledge and authorization for those who issue permits for, perform, or act as fire guards during various types of hot work involving flammable materials. Even those who are responsible for ordering hot work can benefit from this training. The training concludes with a digital certification test. Upon successful completion, participants receive a Hot Work® certificate issued by the Swedish Fire Protection Association, granting them authorization to perform hot work involving flammable materials.
