Course content
The course contains the following 5 topics:
1 – Noise in the workplace
The first topic identifies how many people suffer from noise-induced hearing loss, and explains how serious this hearing loss can be. The topic describes short term and long term effects of loud noise. You will also learn about how excessive noise leads to stress and how this can impact life at work and at home. The topic also identifies some early signs of noise-induced hearing loss.
2 – Employer and employee responsibilities
The second topic outlines the laws that protect people from harmful levels of noise at work. It also identifies employer and employee responsibilities and the need for risk assessment. You will also learn about how an employer can estimate the levels of noise that employees are exposed to.
3 – How the ear works
The third topic describes the structure of the ear and how it processes sound. It explains how loud sounds damage your ear.
4 – How loud is too loud?
Topic 4 describes how sound is measured and what sounds are comfortable to hear. The topic also covers lower and upper exposure action values, and when hearing protection and health surveillance must be provided.
5 – Controlling noise levels in the workplace
The final topic describes the hierarchy of noise controls and how to draw up a noise-control action plan. The topic also explains how engineering controls help to reduce noise levels, and when to use PPE.
Course assessment
Once you have completed the five noise awareness topics, you are ready to take the assessment. The online course builds a test from question banks so that the questions change each time you take the examination. This makes retaking the course the perfect refresher option.
There is also no limit on the number of attempts at the assessment.
Course certificate
You can download and print your certificate immediately when you have successfully passed the online course.
Your noise awareness certificate holds both RoSPA and CPD logos. Therefore, you can use it to provide evidence for compliance with noise awareness standards.
How long is this noise awareness certificate valid for?
Your noise awareness certificate does not contain an expiry date. However, to ensure knowledge of the risks posed by high noise levels is maintained, we recommend renewing this training every 2 years. The recommended renewal date will be noted on your certificate.
Can this training course act as evidence for SSIP accreditations like CHAS, SafeContractor and ConstructionLine?

The importance of noise awareness training
18 million people in the UK suffer from some form of hearing loss. When hearing loss occurs, it is irreversible. Regular exposure to loud noises can affect your hearing. Noise at work can also reduce workers’ awareness of their surroundings, making accidents more likely. Noise awareness training is an effective way of raising awareness so you can prevent noise damage to your hearing. This course will make you aware of the hazards posed by high noise levels and what level of noise is safe.
Our noise awareness training course identifies those at risk, the dangers, and how to reduce them.
Why online training is the best option
When it comes to completing noise reduction training, online methods come with many benefits:
- We don’t impose time limits for course participants; take your time to digest the content before starting the assessment. In-person classroom settings for learning usually have more rigid timings for studying and assessments.
- If you have 20 members of staff completing the noise awareness course, you can rest assured that they all receive the same training.
- You’ll save budget on travel expenses by not sending staff members across the UK for training.
- Online training courses are a lot more affordable than traditional courses. £15 per employee means you could afford to train more staff members for less.
- Staff can study at a time which suits their schedule, not the lecturers.
