Aerial Lift Train the Trainer (CAN)

Vehicle-mounted aerial lifts are a go-to piece of equipment across Canadian worksites, giving workers safe, efficient access to heights of up to 100 feet for utility work, road maintenance, sign installation, and more. When training is incomplete or poorly delivered, the consequences can be serious, including tip-overs, falls from height, and electrical incidents that put operators and those around them at risk. That's where a knowledgeable, well-prepared trainer makes all the difference. This course covers both the responsibilities of an effective trainer and the full vehicle-mounted aerial lift course, including Canadian legislative requirements, pre-shift inspections, stability principles, safe operating procedures, hazard identification, electrical safety, and emergency response, all supported by practical teaching tips to help you engage and inform your learners.

Everyone learns at a different pace and everyone retains information differently. When you take a course online, you go at your own speed. If you get to a certain point and don’t fully understand the material, you can pause and go back for a review. On the other hand, if everything makes perfect sense, you can go straight through the entire course right to the test.

How does virtual proctoring/testing with webcam monitoring work?

When you start your test, you will be monitored via your webcam. If you disappear from the screen or appear to be consulting another device or other material, you will be disqualified from the course. The company responsible for virtual proctoring is Integrity Advocate. You can find out more about how their system works here.
