Team leader basic course English with e-learning

Course participants learn the theory through our dynamic learning environment with varied learning modules. The learning material consists of explanations and examples in both text and images. They also practice with the offered theory in various engaging ways.

BHV.NL's English e-learning consists of 4 training modules and a case study. Each chapter concludes with a practice test in preparation for the theory exam. It’s important that the e-learning is successfully completed three working days before the start of the practical day. This means that 70% of the answers of the theory exam must be correct and all modules of the e-learning should be completed.

Being able to selectively deal with the material in the course ensures that course participants have control over the time required for each section. Theory that is familiar can perhaps be gone through more quickly, requiring less time than the stated time investment of four hours. This depends on experience and knowledge.

If course participants have passed their theory at least three days before the start of the practical day, they may participate in the practical day.

​The theme of the practical day is practical action. The main goal of a team leader is to lead a team of in-house emergency response officers and to maintain an overview of a situation in which you must act. Therefore, we focus on leadership skills, practicing through a Table-Top exercise and through various exercise scenarios.

• The employee can take the lead during a situation
• The employee has knowledge about the way of leading during an action
• The employee will have an insight in leading and managing during an action
• The employee has shown that they are able to communicate clear and straightforward
• The employee has knowledge about the context within which a team leader acts
• The employee has knowledge about evacuating and evacuation procedures

Are there more than one in-house emergency response officers active within your organisation, does your organisation have more than one location and does not everyone speak Dutch? Then it’s useful to appoint multiple English-speaking team leaders. A team leader leads an in-house emergency response team and offers operational leadership. In case of a calamity, a team leader ensures a well-structured communication and execution of the protocols as determined in the company emergency plan.

During this in-company training you will follow the theory in English online, followed by a practical day, also in English. The employees already have a valid in-house emergency certificate.

The training course Team Leader In-House Emergency English is suitable for employees in a company where not all employees speak Dutch. If everyone does speak Dutch, you can also follow our Team Leader In-House Emergency Basic Course Dutch.

The in-company training course Team Leader In-House Emergency is especially suitable for companies with employees of multiple nationalities whereby not everyone speaks Dutch. It is convenient to also have English speaking employees during an emergency situation who have been trained into Team Leader In-House Emergency so they can lead and coordinate the in-house emergency aid in English.
