Noise training - online workshops to full competency
The INVC is the major provider of noise competency training courses in the UK and Ireland and is the IOSH-approved organisation covering both noise and HAVS. We developed and run the public courses for IOSH and other organisations plus a wide range of customised in-house and online training versions for major companies worldwide.
We have also developed a range of specialised environmental noise training masterclass workshops at the request of Environment Agencies and Local Authorities (EHOs). We also develop and run joint noise control workshops in collaboration with the HSE.

Online noise training
Most of our noise training workshops are available as online versions, making best practices in noise knowledge available to anyone, anywhere.
All online noise training is provided by experienced engineers with a wealth of practical knowledge, not by academics. This ensures delegates gain as much useful expertise as possible to take away and put to use with our technical support provided as necessary.
Many thanks for your excellent, well grounded and humorous talk yesterday – much appreciated by everybody there… Some of your real world illustrations and solutions were certainly thought provoking… the best noise presentation I’ve ever been to…” BOHS – Andy Phillips: HSE

Noise Training - Master Classes
1 Day Fan Noise Control Master Class
Most fan noise control projects rely on high-cost, inefficient, antediluvian techniques that haven't changed in a century. Conventional silencing usually reduces system efficiency. In contrast, this noise training course demonstrates how recent innovations can reduce capital costs by 50% - 80% and can increase efficiency to make projects self-financing through improved system performance.
1 Day Noise Control Master Class
Intended for H & S professionals and engineers, this joint INVC/HSE based noise training provides procedures to select the best solution to any noise problem and details of low-cost, easily fitted control techniques. The course content will change the way that you and your company approach noise control to reduce both costs and risks by 50% – 90%.
1 Day Noise Risk Management Master Class
The evidence is incontrovertible. Current risk assessment and management practice has failed. This noise training workshop demonstrates how to change to modern best practices…
- New HSE guidance on risk management
- New early warning hearing test technology (OAE)
- New approach to risk management to reduce risk by c 90% at little or no cost…
Construction + Entertainment Courses
1 - 2 Day Construction Site Noise and Vibration Management Workshop
A pragmatic guide to managing noise and vibration from construction, demolition and infrastructure sites and for Section 61 applications. A customisable 1 - 2 day training workshop for site managers and safety/environmental staff that provides the information to implement plans for Best Practicable Means (BPM) management requirements to minimise complaints.
3 Day Entertainment & Music Venue Noise Risk Assessment & Management
The Control of Noise At Work Regulations 2005 have applied to the music and entertainment sector since April 2008. Meeting the requirements is a challenge that requires a seismic shift in attitude and practice across the industry. This noise course provides delegates with the knowledge and skills to comply with the noise risk management requirements.
EA and EHO Environmental Noise Workshops
This suite of effective, high-quality noise training workshops has been run regularly for Environment Agency staff and for EHOs. For the latter, it has been designed to be run in-house for a host authority at minimal cost. The popular option for Local Authorities is to invite paying delegates from other councils to the workshops to encourage communication and to offset training costs. This has even allowed some hosts to generate a profit from staff training...
The Delegate View: “one of the most relevant and informative courses in a long time..” .. “I’d hate to come up against you in court! .. the best value seminar we’ve ever been on” – “standard of presentation was excellent .. humorous and entertaining .. highly recommended”
1 Day Fan Noise Control Workshop
From large industrial units to fast food restaurant kitchen extracts, fans of all kinds are the single most common environmental noise source. This noise training workshop provides detailed guidance on new “best practices” for efficient assessment (e.g. setting specifications where there is tonal content) and the low-cost control of noise from all types of fan.
Best Practicable Means BPM/BAT Noise Control Workshop
Best Practicable Means or Best Available Technology for noise control means different things to different people. Currently, the lack of knowledge and expertise used to define the noise control options is depressing. This noise workshop provides practical guidelines for non-specialists to assess what constitutes BPM and cuts the resources required by more than 80%.
