Asbestos Awareness E-learning Course

About the Course

Welcome to this e-Learning course on Asbestos Management!

This e-course has been developed by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development in collaboration with the Asian Development Bank to support those who manage buildings or structures where asbestos may be present.  This could be within all types of buildings including offices, manufacturing or processing facilities, hospitals, farms, warehousing, maintenance facilities, transport depots and domestic apartments.  Although this course has been designed for building managers, it will also benefit those who need to understand the basic hazards and risks associated with asbestos in environments where they might be responsible or even exposed directly.
