The Curriculum
Every module built
for the job site, not a classroom.
Compliance-verified content, plain-language delivery, and real-world scenarios from actual OSHA citations.
OSHA 10-Hour General Industry
The federal baseline every floor worker needs. Hazard recognition, PPE, electrical safety, and exit routes — delivered in plain language, not compliance jargon.
OSHA 30-Hour Supervision
For foremen, leads, and safety coordinators. Teaches how to run a pre-task analysis, conduct toolbox talks, and document near-misses before they become citations.
Lockout/Tagout Certification
The single most-cited OSHA standard in manufacturing. Hands-on simulation, written program development, and equipment-specific procedures.
Fall Protection Competent Person
Required for construction sites above 6 feet. Covers leading edge work, scaffolding, aerial lifts, and inspection protocols.
Powered Industrial Truck (Forklift)
OSHA 1910.178(l) compliant certification with hands-on evaluation. Covers pre-shift inspection, load handling, and pedestrian zone management.
