Full-Day Training

Practical full-day certification program focused on operational safety, compliance confidence, and site-level risk control.

Program Overview

Tunnel construction is among the most hazardous activities in the civil engineering and infrastructure development sector. Working in confined, underground environments with the constant threats of ground collapse, flooding, fire, toxic gases, oxygen deficiency, and dust exposure demands highly specialized safety knowledge and rigorous operational protocols.

ICLM's Tunnelling Safety training (Course Code T1102) equips tunnel engineers, site supervisors, equipment operators, safety officers, geotechnical engineers, and project managers in metro rail, highway, hydro power, and urban infrastructure projects with the comprehensive safety knowledge and practical skills to manage tunnelling hazards effectively and in compliance with applicable safety standards. organizations.
