SECTION 5. COURSE REQUIREMENTS

5.1. GENERAL:

CIN: A-493-0104, Competent Person Fall Protection Course Length: 5 Days Max. Class Size: 25

Purpose/Objective of Course: The purpose of this course is to train and equip Navy E-6 and above personnel who serve as the Competent Person Fall Protection for afloat, ashore, and aviation commands or activities.

Participants are provided with the knowledge to prepare and implement fall protection and prevention plans and fall-arrest rescue plans and procedures. Classroom tasks will equip attendees with the ability to perform the following tasks: identify hazardous and dangerous conditions encountered during Afloat, Ashore, and Aviation working-from-height operations; take prompt corrective measures; conduct fall hazard surveys and prepare assessment documents; inspect and install fall-protection systems; and ensure compliance with applicable policy documents.

This course fulfills the training requirements delineated in OPNAVINST 5100.19 series, Chapter B13, Department of the Navy Fall Protection Guide, OPNAV M-5100.23, OPNAVINST 5102.1/MCO P5102.1(series), Naval Ships' Technical Manual Chapter 600_ Vol 3, NAVSUP 538 Management of Materials Handling Equipment and Shipboard Mobile Support Equipment, ANSI Z359 Fall Protection Code, and 29

CFR 1910, 29 CFR 1915.

The course is a group paced, criterion referenced, instructor led, student participation, lecture/laboratory type instructional system that uses firmly established training procedures. All procedures will be accomplished in accordance with up-to-date instructional techniques and learning methods.

5.2. The contractor is responsible for developing a student guide/manual to be provided at the beginning of each course, for each student to keep for future reference. A course syllabus is required to be in each student guide/manual, which outlines the topics to be covered by day and the approximate amount of time to be spent on each topic. The student guide/manual shall also include copies of any computer-generated graphics used, along with note-taking space. Material in the student manual shall follow the order in which the material is presented in class to avoid confusion, ensure students can easily follow the course progression, and maximize time on task. Other handouts are subject to the discretion of the contractor, but shall be included in the student guide/manual.

5.3. The contract instructors shall prepare the classroom for instruction (e.g., ensure course materials are brought into classroom, arrange tables and chairs, layout course materials for each student) and ensure classroom is left in an orderly fashion at the end of each day.

5.4. Demonstration: The instructors shall demonstrate use of fall protection rescue equipment. All equipment for demonstrations shall be provided by the contractor.

5.5. Performance Based Instruction/Assessment: The instructors shall provide a workshop allowing students to don and doff the fall protection equipment and experience use of equipment at a height no more than 4 ft from the ground. Training shall be suspended immediately if any workshop provides experience of more than 4 ft.

5.6. Contract instructors shall provide remediation for any student demonstrating academic problems at any time in the course. Remediation may take the form of one-on-one discussion during or after class hours, extra study assignments to reinforce mastery of difficult material, a review of the results of the final exam, etc. The degree of remediation will be determined by the contract instructor on a case-by-case basis. It is expected that most remediation will be accomplished during regular class hours. However, there may be a need to briefly assist a student on an occasional basis after class. Student remediation shall be performed at no additional cost to the Government. There is no compensation beyond that included in the contract. Any demands on a contract instructor’s time considered excessive and beyond the scope of the contract should be brought to the attention of the COR. The contract instructor shall notify the COR and Course Manager of any student experiencing academic problems.

5.7. The Course Manager will provide official NAVSAFENVTRACEN graduation certificates for the course.

These certificates shall be completed by the contractor/instructor at the end of each course and presented to students who have successfully completed the course. In the event that tests cannot be graded before students are dismissed on the final day, it is the responsibility of the contractor to ensure students are notified of their test results and provided their graduation certificate as appropriate within ten (10) business days. Course completion certificates shall be kept under careful control by the contractor and only issued directly to the student successfully completing the course. Contractor must destroy any unused certificates.

5.8. Any student missing more than 20% of a class will fail the course and will not receive a graduation certificate.

In this case the contract instructor shall contact the COR and Course Manager immediately upon occurrence to discuss the student’s situation. The Government retains the right to make the final decision on whether or not a student will be allowed to stay for the remainder of the course.
