Across industries like utilities, construction, and maintenance, vehicle-mounted aerial lifts are critical tools but also high-risk equipment. Inadequate training can lead to serious incidents such as falls, tip-overs, and electrical contact, often due to gaps in understanding or poor instruction.

This course addresses those risks by developing competent trainers who can deliver consistent, compliant, and engaging training. Strong trainers reduce liability, improve worker confidence, and ensure that safety standards are properly communicated and applied on every job site.

Learning Outcomes

• Identify Canadian legislative requirements and training standards for aerial lifts
• Implement effective in-person training strategies for adult learners
• Analyze aerial lift components, stability principles, and load limits
• Conduct thorough pre-shift inspections, including PPE and fall protection
• Apply safe operating procedures for mounting, dismounting, and boom operation
• Navigate hazard identification, worksite communication, and lift planning 
• Execute emergency response procedures, including rescue planning and incident protocols

This aerial lift train-the-trainer course is designed to take approximately 120 minutes to complete. Because the training is delivered online, participants can move through the material at their own pace and return to sections as needed.

To complete the course successfully, learners must achieve a score of 80% or higher. Up to three attempts are provided, giving participants the opportunity to demonstrate a solid understanding of the course material.

After meeting the course requirements, participants will be able to download and print a certificate of completion.
