October 7, 2009 - Confined-space training unit launched
WAM Training is proud to unveil the first of its mobile confined-space entry and working-at-heights training units.
The unit was specially built over several months to deliver WAM’s training services in a safe and controlled environment – onsite at workplaces or off-site where needed.
Featuring three separate compartments, the unit allows for a full range of hands-on rescue and breathing apparatus entry and exit training. The unit was cleverly designed to also simulate rescues at substantial heights and practice working in confined spaces.
Dubbed “Mobile One”, the unit lets WAM Training expand its range of confined spaces-related courses and conduct those courses across the state - without risk. It further puts WAM Training at the forefront of construction industry training in Victoria.
“We wanted to provide greater flexibility and mobility to our clients – whilst maintaining and delivering a great service to customers,” said WAM’s training manager, Steve Horbec.
“It’s all about meeting industry best practice and giving our customers and staff a safe environment to conduct such training, and greater choices for our clients,” he said.
A second mobile unit is due to be completed next January. The launch of Mobile One comes after the opening last month of WAM Training’s new administrative office in Drouin, south-east of Melbourne.

WAM Training friendly staff answered dozens of questions about jobs in the construction industry at the Herald Sun Melbourne Career Expo at the weekend.
It was the first time WAM Training was represented at the expo - the premier education, training and employment exhibition in Victoria, held at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Expo attendees sought information about WAM Training's many courses including construction induction cards, forklift licences, confined space entry and working at heights.
"A wide range of people visited our stand throughout the three days, including students, job seekers, graduates and people looking for a career change," says WAM Training's Steve Horbec.
"We even had several people already working in the construction industry wanting to know how to upgrade their skills."
The expo showcases some of Australia and New Zealand's leading tertiary institutions, training colleges, employers and State and Federal government initiatives.
