The Internet of Things is a much talked about technology in the press, yet many of the use cases shown are from the domestic and consumer world such as Fitbits (personal fitness monitors) and smart homes. However the most valuable part of the IoT ecosystem will be what is known as the Industrial IoT. This part will be as much as 70% (by value) of the entire IoT market and it is important for everybody in industry and business to know. The IIoT does not refer to just pure industrial applications of IoT but also those which are a blend of industrial and enterprise applications, such as integrated cold chains, logistics applications, electrical distribution and utilities, just to name a few.

To enable engineers, technologists and managers to learn about this exciting new technology, Abhisam has organized the Industrial Internet of Things workshop. This intensive two day hands on workshop will cover all aspects of the IIoT and is not just for hobbyists but for practicing engineers and technologists who wish to know about it and participate in this new world.

All participants will get a Certificate of Participation from Abhisam.

Just get this Confined Space Safety e-learning course today and get trained in working safely in confined spaces.

Note that it includes all the knowledge that you need to have to know how to work safely in confined spaces.

Can I not get this information free from elsewhere?

There is a  common myth  “Just Google it”

It is a myth that you can simply Google for Confined Space   information and get everything that you need to know.

Most likely you will get a large number of occupational safety articles and information, some videos, some power point slides, but much of the information may be in bits and pieces.

While you can get some basic information about confined space safety from these sources, it may not be complete. Even if you do find enough material, it will take you a long time to sequence it all together in one coherent document that makes sense to you.

Even after doing all this there is a possibility that you may not get what you really need to know from an OSHA compliance perspective

Plus you will spend several hours of your time doing all this for zero returns on your investment!

On the other hand, when you take this Abhisam Confined Space safety course, you know that

    1.  It is very carefully made, with subject matter experts in the field of Occupational Safety, Process Safety & Industrial operations who have spent decades in the actual field creating permit systems, investigating incidents and streamlining methods to reduce or eliminate confined space safety accidents.
    2. Utilizes easy graphics, animations and simulations, real life examples of dos and donts, correct and incorrect practices  that enable you to understand everything easily.
    3.  Earn a Certificate when you pass the associated exam and also get an electronic badge that can be displayed online on places such as LinkedIn. Get Noticed.

Can I not simply buy a book? That will be much cheaper!

Of course, you could always pass this up and decide to go for  buy a book on this topic,

but,

remember that there are some disadvantages with this approach

    1.  The first is that not a single book is available  that covers all the topics that you need to know. On the other hand, there will be many books on general workplace safety, occupational safety, permit systems, that may be relevant to only those working in normal workplaces, not those having confined spaces.
    2.  Some of these books may be outdated and obsolete.
    3.  Nobody gives you a certificate if you simply read a book!

 

What does the $7 trial include?

The $7 trial includes trial access to ALL the courses in the Abhisam Catalog for a limited time including this Confined Spaces Safety course
