BAS PU English– Basic Course

Training in english

BAS PU English provides you with the fundamental knowledge and skills required to take on the role of construction work environment coordinator – during both the planning and execution phases. You will learn about applicable regulations, allocation of responsibilities, and documentation requirements. The course is offered in both Swedish and English and can be conducted either remotely or in person.

Never accept BAS PU english with less than two days. Legal requirements are that severe, and shortcomings are on the responsibility of the employer. Always. New provisions are here, AFS 2023:3 replaced AFS 1999:3, and we are providing you with English translations. We have all the provisions in English prepared for you.

Every construction site must have an appointed Principal Designer and a Principal Contractor – in Swedish: BAS P and BAS U; one for the planning phase and one for the construction phase. This course must be followed by day two, the Certificate Course.

Those roles require certain competence and knowledge within a number of provisions, experience and training. Byggsäkerhet has a lot of experence giving the course in English. Training is conducted in steps and the amount of training needed for a BAS P/U is entirely in relation to the extent of the projects and previous experience.
