This innovative one-day course has been developed in response to a common request from our clients and has received the City & Guilds Assured status. [![  No obligation course enquiry    ](https://hubspot-no-cache-eu1-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/25825845/interactive-94566375877.png)](https://resources.jmsconsultants.co.uk/hs/cta/wi/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLKIxsSxdO7CL07VGeMi7740wYdi24fgryIkJkRTUlwsdMdGjq2u30L6uJ%2FY2ep8YcdmTrcw2iQDHHKBs9UcTRRbM7A2ntPUCurLi6B1ZeYbRI4iXca7AMhl1rMZ6JlneAFt00X4uwBIanT%2Fsv4S13YRMkiHS%2FzpD3kfsx1%2B06PknSMMat8tyPSk9rjyxasyEJ1RnNMwaYHqRzImnQAea0%2FFXyk%3D&webInteractiveContentId=94566375877&portalId=25825845&hsLang=en-gb) ## Why We Created This Course Many of our clients have personnel who use gas detectors for monitoring purposes but don't perform full gas tests. These employees require a solid understanding of the equipment and associated hazards, but don't necessarily need the comprehensive two-day gas tester training. Recognising this gap, we've designed the GDU course, with external accreditation, to meet this specific need. ## What You'll Learn The Gas Detector User course is tailored for anyone who uses a gas detector in their work. Over the course of one day, participants will gain valuable insights into: - The importance of gas detectors in workplace safety - Hazards that gas detectors protect against - Fundamental principles of gas detection and measurement - Proper operation and maintenance of gas detection equipment - Ensuring functionality and reliability of gas detectors   [![Configure your on-site course now!](https://hubspot-no-cache-eu1-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/25825845/interactive-73591523282.png)](https://resources.jmsconsultants.co.uk/hs/cta/wi/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLJkHxPBv447PFC2pQOi6g1d7dTwK4xjVXlMFIfurpVis%2Bmk3NC%2BLm52xvdfjgECVIphdfXIdZl4nui66p4s0PaC61qvMNkQ9LL%2Bw490jBOeGb2ASHoUsDdfpzXxP0iDCVyA5r9mFvXJFKvhE%2BEcjyf2yE1Gbsfu1kSYBiBOb%2Fsei55XENR%2Fmjg5b7%2B6M5T7h0PHVP%2BJSgcg89qwMhc%3D&webInteractiveContentId=73591523282&portalId=25825845&hsLang=en-gb) ## City & Guilds Assured We're proud to announce that our GDU course has been City & Guilds Assured.
