CompEx is the internationally recognised certification scheme for validating the competency of personnel working in industries with potentially hazardous or explosive atmospheres.

The certification framework helps organisations demonstrate compliance with legislation and regulation, while also supporting risk management, project efficiency, and reputation protection.

Our mission is to protect people and assets in environments where explosive risks are present. We do this by working with industry to develop competent, safety-conscious professionals at the core of operations and in doing so equip hazardous area practitioners with the knowledge, skills, and behaviours necessary to work safely and effectively.

CompEx qualifications are delivered through an international network of independent training providers to ensure high-quality delivery, assessment, and continuous learning.

CompEx is more than a certification—it’s a commitment to operational safety, asset integrity, and professional development. We understand the safety critical nature of hazardous environments, and we are dedicated to helping individuals and businesses navigate these challenges confidently, competently, and responsibly.
