Course Outline & Content
Phase 1 – Theory Training
Trainees are guided through a comprehensive & interactive review of the operators workbook covering:
Phase 2 – Theory Evaluation
Upon theory completion, participants will participate in a knowledge review test consisting of multiple choice, true/false and essay-type questions. These tests are graded, returned to the trainees, and then reviewed to ensure proper retention.
A minimum score of 70% is required to pass.
NOTE: Anyone with known difficulties in English / written-based tests must be accompanied by an interpreter or consult us about any difficulties.
Phase 3 – Practical Training
Trainees are shown the pre-use inspection, machine controls and safe operating procedures then allowed to practice under the helpful eye of the program trainer.
Phase 4 – Practical Evaluation
Trainees are assessed as having reached a minimum skill level and then individually evaluated using the equipment in a series of skill-reinforcing scenarios. Following the evaluation, trainees are debriefed about their performance and then allowed to address any issues they may have. Each trainee’s records will be handed to the employer (or trainee) after completion of the program. Personal protective equipment is required during the evaluation and throughout the program to ensure the safety of the trainees. The evaluation process is conducted by a competent person responsible for monitoring safety hazards and ensuring compliance with safety practices.
