In 2009, Gordon, through his work in the Petrochemical Industry, became aware of new regulations, stipulating a requirement for people in certain safety-related activities to be competent in the field of explosive protection through experience and professional training.

There has been an increased call from all sides of industry for professionals working in hazardous areas to demonstrate competence to carry out their tasks.

The U.K.A.S. Competence Professional Scheme satisfies this need.
