About this course

Ah, Robot Wars! The hit TV show where contestants build robots using everyday objects and then make them fight to the death! When it comes to weapons, these things are vicious. For the robot connoisseur, top of the weapons tree is the abrasive wheel! Spinning at frightening speeds, it’s sure to get sparks flying, inflicting serious damage to anything in its path. Brutal! But what if you work with these tools every day? Abrasive wheels are incredibly useful but also very dangerous when used incorrectly. 

Engaging the learner

Abrasive wheels might be useful, but learning about them probably doesn’t make you want to do a happy dance. So, to help transform this vital training into something more interesting and memorable, we used a familiar and fun theme: Robot Wars. By combining high-quality animation and loads of interactivity, we’ve created a course that’s fully immersive for the learner. Approved by IOSH, one of the world’s leading health and safety organisations, this course lets the learner take control with a variety of interactive menus to discover the learning. It also includes interactive knowledge checkers, and a final quiz, which gives the learner the opportunity to test out their knowledge in different scenarios. And all this helps new learning stick.
