NOT AVAILABLE AT PRESENT - This course is for Building and Area Wardens located at the main campus sites. Regional, smaller, and tenanted buildings off main campus may have modified procedures. Many buildings have specific procedures so local familiarisation is required. It is designed to provide wardens the skills to successfully conduct a building evacuation and is not intended to replace the formal Warden training and refresher courses which cover more detail and other emergencies. There is a quiz to complete at the end of the unit.
