Yes – IATP (Independent Asbestos Training Providers) Asbestos Awareness and UKATA (UK Asbestos Training Association) Asbestos Awareness courses both meet the HSE’s legal requirements under the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. The difference is not in the training quality itself, but in how widely each is recognised by contractors.
Some companies or main contractors insist on “UKATA only” because it is a well-known brand in the construction industry and may be written into their site induction or pre-qualification requirements. This does not mean IATP training is lower quality – it simply means that UKATA is the preferred or specified provider for certain contracts.
UKATA is one of the leading training provider associations within the asbestos industry.
This UKATA Accredited Asbestos Awareness course covers the dangers of asbestos and where the Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) can be found, in line with regulatory requirements laid out in Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.
This UKATA Asbestos Awareness course is for general builders, plumbers, carpenters, electricians, scaffolders, and other trades involved in construction and maintenance activities, and is suitable for those carrying out operative, supervisor, management and leadership roles.
The content of this course is designed to provide anyone whose work could foreseeably expose them to asbestos with sufficient knowledge to avoid putting themselves or others at risk, in line with regulatory requirements laid out in Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012.
The sorts of trades which are affected include:

There is no legal requirement to repeat an entire formal awareness refresher training course every 12 months. However, some form of refresher should be given, as necessary, to help ensure knowledge of asbestos awareness is maintained.
Candidates whose first language is not English are welcome to attend. However, all courses are conducted, assessed/marked and certificated in English.
