Course Recognition: Respiratory Protection Program
The primary aim of fit testing is to secure a functional seal when utilizing a clasped, close-fitting respirator. Any individual who must adhere to the requirement of wearing a close-fitting mask during their everyday activities should be fit tested. This is for safety purposes as an effective seal is a necessity in certain working conditions.
View the list below to see which topics are covered in our fit testing:
- Proper respirator donning and doffing
- How to properly perform seal checks
- Care, use, and upkeep of the respirators
Upon successful completion of the fit test course, each participant is gifted with a wallet card signaling the following:
- The make, size, and model of the mask
- The variation of Fit Testing
- Expiry Date
- Two-year validation certification
Offering Qualitative and Quantitative Fit Tests
If they own one, participants are encouraged to bring their own mask(s). We provide MSA, Scott, 3M, and additional mask variations for on and off-site fit testing reasons. Moreover, for the fit testing process, participants can also bring other products. The tests take 15 minutes – to get the proper mask seal, a clean-shaven face is required.
