Face Fit Train The Tester Course Information
The Respiratory Protective Equipment - Face Fit Train The Tester Course is suitable for anyone who wears respiratory protective equipment on either a frequent or infrequent basis or has the duty to manage RPE procedures in the workplace.

Face Fit testing does not need to be done annually but it is recommended that face piece wearers receive annual refresher training covering the selection, use & maintenance of their mask.
When face masks are issued on an individual basis, it is recommended that they receive an individual assessment on their own face masks.
