Description
In collaboration with Mid and West Wales Fire & Rescue Service (MAWWFRS) and North Wales Fire & Rescue Service (NWFRS), South Wales Fire & Rescue Service (SWFRS) are looking for a supplier to provide initial courses, re-qualification courses and scenario-based maintenance of skills days to our HAZMAT and Radiation Protection Supervisor (RPS) officers. Delegates from other UK Fire and Rescue Services may also attend the courses as and when required.
Lot 1: — There are 4 courses that the successful supplier will need to be able to deliver as part of this contract. The courses are as follows:
Initial HAZMAT & RPS Combined Course
HAZMAT & RPS Combined Requalification Course
Initial RPS Course
HMA Scenario training day
There are currently 64 HAZMAT officers between the 3 Services, all of which will require a HAZMAT/RPS requalification course in the 2025/26 financial year and every year thereafter.
New officers will require a HAZMAT/RPS initial course and these will be booked as and when required.
There are also some delegates that have already attended a HMA initial course without the RPS qualification. These delegates will need to attend a RPS initial course. The supplier must be able to deliver RPS initial courses to these individuals.
The HMA scenario training day would consist of delivery of scenario based maintenance of skills sessions delivered to existing HMAs as part of their continuous CPD in addition to their annual recertification course.
Please see Appendix B – Course Requirements for further detail on our requirements for each course.
