About the Course

The OPITO OIM Controlling Emergencies Competence Assessment programme is aimed at personnel who are deemed ready by their employer to be formally assessed in the role of an OIM during an emergency situation. The course is delivered in partnership with SAFER Training.

The aim and objective of the OIM Controlling Emergencies Competence Assessment is to formally assess the delegate in the role of an OIM during an emergency situation in a simulated environment.

The assessment is designed primarily where there is a threat to life, installation and/or the environment. The scenarios can be realistically simulated and allow the delegate to support their existing skills, knowledge and experience in dealing with emergencies and critical situations to OPITO standards.

An OPITO OIM Controlling Emergencies Competence certificate indicates that the delegate has achieved a level of competence required to be recognised as an OPITO Certified Offshore Installation Manager.

An OPITO OIM Controlling Emergencies Competence certificate will be issued to delegates who have been successfully assessed against all of the Performance and Knowledge Criteria.
