This
Basic Construction interactive safety training course
on CD is convenient and easy to use. Individual employees
can train at a time that is convenient for them, at
their own pace. The system automatically tracks their
progress in the course along with any completed quiz
scores and bookmarks the learner’s place to make it
easy to resume training if training is interupted.
Upon completion of the course, and a 100% score, the
employee will then be able to print a certificate
of completion.
Employers
no longer need to pull large groups of employees
off the job to complete their safety training.

interactive course can help you:
- Meet
compliance-based safety requirements
-
Reduce risks of accidents and injury on and off
the job
