Live, Online Training Class

Get Started With Your Risk Assessment Today

Overview

With our flexible machine safety and risk assessment training options, you can choose to train on-site at your location or online via Microsoft Teams.  Another convenient option is our live, online ‘open enrollment’ web conference, focused on machine safety and risk assessment.

Due to its popularity, we offer this two-day class on a continuous basis throughout the year. It’s designed to help you and your team improve safety in your facility by increasing awareness of modern safety standards and enabling increased use of engineering controls for risk reduction methods.

Once you’ve completed the two-day class, you’re also eligible to participate in our Technical Breakout Sessions – an optional third day add-on with a selection of advanced topics, providing a deeper understanding of subject material.
