Online Training that Keeps Employees Out of the Classroom and on the Job

Contractors, suppliers and individuals need to demonstrate a variety of competencies in order to meet regulatory requirements, keep up with industry advances, and become compliant with the corporate policies of employing companies. CourseWorks lets you and your employees take industry-recognized online courses from anywhere with an Internet connection. This eliminates the time and expense associated with classroom-based courses, and enables your employees to report on-site ready to work.

Employees that are Ready to Work

By letting employees complete their training online instead of in a classroom, CourseWorks enables them to learn what they need to know and report on-site ready to work. This saves everyone time and money, from the employees who otherwise have to take time off to attend pricey classes, to the administrative personnel who are freed from having to keep paper- and spreadsheet-based training records.

Auditable Training Records

By replacing spreadsheets and paper-based procedures with digital records, CourseWorks gives both the individual and the organization a real-time view of training records. Test results, sign-off and acknowledgement are recorded to let you communicate training requirements to individuals, track who's received notifications, and audit who's taken which courses. Users can even print off handy wallet-sized certification cards to show when they arrive at the work site.

Industry-Recognized Courses

CourseWorks currently provides a wide range of general safety and industry-specific courses online, and can be used to deliver company-specific videos, PDFs, training and orientations. The courses available are recognized by the Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals (BCRSP), the Canadian Registration Board of Occupational Hygienists (CRBOH) and the American Board of Industrial Hygiene (ABIH), and meet their Certification Maintenance Points criteria. The University of Calgary also allows students to earn up to 30 hours of elective course credit in the Health, Safety and Environment Certificate program.

For the oil and gas industry, Petroleum Safety Training (PST) meets all of the requirements for IRP 16 - Basic Safety Awareness Training and is recognized by the Construction Owners Association of Alberta (COAA), when accompanied by Enform's Safe-T components, as equivalent to its Construction Safety Training System (CSTS).
