The basic course Safety for Intermediaries and Managers VCU (VIL-VCU) is primarily intended for managers (office managers) and intermediaries (temporary agency workers) of employment agencies. In this VIL-VCU course, they learn not only about general safety knowledge but also about the specific knowledge required to fulfil the responsibility of selecting and providing information within the framework of safe work practices. In order to obtain the VCU certification as a temporary employment organisation, every intermediary employed for more than three months must be in possession of the VIL-VCU certificate. VCU stands for Safety and Health Checklist for Temporary Agency Workers. Because the final attainment levels of the VIL-VCU exam hardly differ from the VOL-VCA exam, the open registration course VIL-VCU is combined with the VOL-VCA course. During the course, VIL-VCU participants receive additional information aimed at VIL-VCU.
About two weeks before the course starts, you will receive a free digital book. You can use this digital book to prepare yourself optimally for the VIL-VCU training. Texts and practice questions alternate in the digital book and at the end you can test your knowledge by means of a mock exam. So prepare yourself optimally for the training and your exam by already reading the digital book! Read, test and learn, because with the VIL-VCU e-book you know more!
