Our E-Learning Display Screen Equipment (DSE) Assessment. This course is aimed at enabling users of Display Screen Equipment (DSE) to perform a self-assessment of their workstation, at home or in the office, to ensure the correct use of DSE and to protect their health and well-being.  DSE is a term that covers a wide range of equipment. If DSE equipment is not set up correctly, users are at increased risk from certain disorders. As an employee, you share responsibility for keeping yourself safe at work. That means undergoing relevant training and ensuring the proper use of DSE.
