There is an examination at the end of the course where the delegate must gain an 80% pass mark, along with a practical assessment of decontamination procedures. This will involve the delegate going through the showering process within a decontamination unit.

Failure to gain the 80% pass mark will result in a training analysis to be carried out on the delegate and may require further training.

On completion of the course, each delegate who passes the examination and practical sessions will receive a certificate of completion with a personal photograph attached, a copy of the presentation/training booklet and additional supporting material. This certificate will expire after 1 year from the certificate date, after which the delegate is required to complete and pass a refresher course.
