GWO Blended Learning Refresher Course (BL-BST-R)Blended-Learning Basic Safety Training Refresher course

This is a BST Refresher (certification renewal) course delivered through blended learning, combining theoretical training via online learning (e-learning) with practical training conducted face-to-face at our training center.

This certification renewal course is intended for participants who have previously completed the BST course. Therefore, those taking the BST course for the first time are not eligible to attend.

After making a reservation through our website, you will be able to access the e-learning page from four weeks before the start date of the practical training at our training center.
Please note: You must complete the e-learning before the start of the practical training; otherwise, you will not be allowed to participate in the practical training.

The course can be taken in Japanese or English starting two months before the renewal deadline of the previously completed course.
(In this case, the certification will be extended for two years from the renewal deadline of the previous course.)

★ Important Notice ★

The blended course will be available from June. Applications will be accepted from March 9.
(Until the end of May, the conventional course format will be used, in which both classroom learning and practical training must be completed at our training center.)

Japanese and English courses are offered separately.
When making a reservation from the booking calendar, please carefully check the course name, as the display differs.
