Institution of Chemical Engineers Training

Framework agreement

Description

The overall programme consists of four live online training courses to support competence development and assurance of chemical engineering and process safety knowledge and skills for new and existing staff across relevant regimes, sectors and functions. X223 Chemical Engineering for Scientists and Other Engineers and X222 Process Risk Assessment (PRA) have been tailored after an initial trail and delegate feedback to ensure they are providing appropriate focus for Environment Agency staff. The other two courses will remain as “off-the-shelf” training courses by IChemE. This is because they are foundation process safety courses for people new to the discipline. These are X224 Introduction to Process Safety (PS Intro) and X221 Fundamentals of Process Safety (FOPS). The proposed delivery programme and budget for 2026/27 is provided below. This is expected to be consistent in the following 2 years of the 3 year contract however will depend on funding through the national L&D budget. 2026/27 L&D funded training plan: • 1 x Chem Eng for Scientists (X223) (23.5 CPD (continuing professional development hours* each course) • 2 x PRA (X222) (15 CPD hours*) • 1 x PS Intro (X224) (14 CPD hours* each course) • 2 x FOPS (X221) (34 CPD hours*) * Note: CPD hours are an approximate guide and will vary depending on the preferred approach of the delegate and to what extent additional learning is completed. The courses have been combined by individuals with different professional discipline backgrounds to ensure the correct understanding and competence through the last 3 years. The current years proposals are based on the expected demand from Installations and High Hazard staff. Delegate attendance will be prioritised by business need in each regulatory regime, function and role.
