A supervisor asks when someone was last checked off on lock-out tag-out, and the honest answer is a shrug and a promise to look it up. The habit pages here rule that question out: ten competencies run across the top, toolbox talk through vibration reading, and a box waits under each one for the date it was last confirmed.

Renewal intervals are set by your employer or the regulator you answer to, and they differ by jurisdiction. This book gives you a row to record the date a competency was confirmed. It does not print the interval, because a number printed here would be wrong somewhere the day it shipped.

Twelve project pages track training itself as a piece of work, course by course, and six reflection pages ask what actually stuck once the course was over. Seventeen lined pages catch whatever does not fit anywhere else. None of it substitutes for the record your employer keeps. It just means you have your own copy of the date.

The film

Page by page

A vertical film from our own bench — this page contacts nobody's server to play it, and downloads nothing until you press play.

A vertical film, 52 seconds: the cover, the ruling page, then 5 reference pages. Synthesised ambient bed, no dialogue — captions in three languages.

Real pages

Five pages from the Training and Competency Planner laid out as cards: a competency habit page, a project page, a reflection page, a lined notes page, and a reference page. — Five pages taken from the print file: a habit page ruled across ten competencies, a project page, a reflection page, a lined notes page, and a reference page. The habit page is the reason to open this rather than a plain notebook: ten boxes, one date each, no guessing.

Questions

What are the ten competencies on the habit page?

Toolbox talk, Lifting and slinging, Confined space, Hot work permit, First aid, Lock-out tag-out, Pump alignment, Bearing replacement, Seal fitting, Vibration reading.

How big is it?

A5, 148 x 210 mm, 60 pages, 3.43 mm across the spine.

Does it tell me how often a competency needs renewing?

No, and that is deliberate. Renewal intervals are set by an employer or a regulator, they differ by jurisdiction, and a printed book cannot be corrected. The habit page gives you somewhere to record the date; the interval is not the book's to state.
