Park Lodge International and Jeff Mack Consultancy will host its next safety course around Alternative Fuelled Vehicles on 6 February.

The eight-hour, IMI-accredited course will take place in Burnley, focusing on three key areas around AFVs: on-scene assessment of battery damage and potential risks; the safe repair of AFVs with high voltage battery damage; the safe storage of damaged AFVs at repair sites.

Aimed at everyone from insurers to first responders and repair technicians, the course aims to help delegates to: understand the risks of each fuel; appreciate the mechanics of damage in road crashes; gather enough information to carry out an accurate risk assessment; understand how lithium-ion batteries react to an external heat source; appreciate the insurance responsibility and liability; and to provide safe solutions.
