Hi all I am looking into the P402 Bulk Sampling of asbestos course and there are a lot of providers out there. I am asking for anyone who has experience of doing this and any recomendations, good or bad, of companies to look at. Many Thanks Ian

Look to a provider with expertise in the analytical field as well as just the 'practical' sampling side of things. I believe there are a lot of 'providers' out there who just do the very miniumum and just piggy back a lab for that part of the course. As Ron suggests the BOHS would be the first point of contact as they run the course anyway and they will be able to put you in touch with a good course provider.

Hi If you are self employed or considering it, also have a look at the insurance implications before you buy. Owch comes to mind. Regards Linda
