5.5 Validity Period Basic Safety Standard training is valid for the period stated in Table 5.5.1 below. Training records shall be renewed before the end of a given validity period. A training record can be renewed up to two months prior to expiry and maintain the original certification date by uploading the previous training record’s valid until date in WINDA. If a training record is renewed outside of two months of expiry, it must carry the new date of certification. If a training record is expired, the participant must attend the applicable BST module(s) training(s) to obtain a new training record.
The validity period is automatically calculated by WINDA by entering the course completion date.
When attending refresher training, the course participants must do so before the expiry of the previous training record’s validity period.
