Challenges of Junior Ventilation and Occupational Hygiene Practitioner

Challenges of junior ventilation and occupational hygiene practitioners – A perspective from a junior MVSSA member

Despite the large number of students attempting MEC examinations annually, only a handful are successful in achieving full certification. Discussions and interaction with Junior Environmental Practitioners across the industry have indicated dissatisfaction with the qualification, which lead to the drawing up of perceived problems that may contribute to the training and learning difficulties. These perceptions were later confirmed through a survey and an interactive presentation with junior members. There was no link between the results of the survey and the pass rate. It is recommended that several factors be considered to understand the challenges faced by juniors and to improve the
perception of juniors towards a more positive view across the industry. Click here for a full copy the report on this topic.
