LIF-CM-FC-RFFC-MSC Peer Review

ILEVE Technical Committee looking at standards for the supply, installation, servicing, testing, commissioning, and using of fume cupboards, recirculating fume cupboards and microbiological safety cabinets, invites you and your organisation to peer review the attached Competency Matrix.

The Matrix sets out the job roles associated with the purchasing and safe use of these systems, the knowledge, skills, and qualifications required by persons undertaking these roles and the sources of information and training available.

It then attempts to provide guidance in terms of the level of detailed of a subject required by the person undertaking that role.

It is envisaged that this matrix will be used to help industry:

• Identify gaps in the skills and knowledge requirements
• Develop training courses and guidance to fill those gaps, potentially leading to apprenticeship schemes
• Provide competency cards based on evidence

We have set a deadline for all feedback and response to be sent to [email protected] no later than 31^st December 2022.

Thank you for your support in helping raise standards across the industry.
