FAQ

  • This course will give you the educational learning requirements to be a successful TCP, though it does not provide site-specific direction on facilitating a traffic control plan. For more information regarding legislative requirements, please consult the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA).

  • Our training course is designed for all types of jobs and industries, although it is specifically suited for tradespeople and construction workers working on a highway and who are endangered by vehicular traffic, unrelated to the project. Our e-learning training program raises general awareness about confined spaces, though this should not be used exclusively. Workers must receive comprehensive training in addition to our awareness program, which should involve a practical component(s). For more information regarding legislative requirements, please consult with the OHSA.
