All Terrain Vehicle Operator's Course - Classroom/Skill assessment on practical course
The OHS legislation requires competent training in the operation of these vehicles. They are very dangerous in the hands of inexperienced operators. This course is Canada Safety Council registered and combines minimal classroom time with extensive driving assessment conducted on a course. The training emphasizes safe operation to prevent injury or death. Good course for recreational ATV users too!
This course is designed to reduce your risk in having an accident. Approximately 80-85% of all accidents could be avoided through collision avoidance techniques. This course includes presentations, discussions, written case studies for students to understand collisions, and how they are mostly avoidable.

Powered Mobile Equipment Operator's Course
This is a new course specifically designed to meet the requirements of the amendments to the Saskatchewan Occupational Health and Safety Legislation. While designing the course, we ensured that the material also met the legislative requirements of Manitoba, Alberta and the Canada Labour Code. Powered mobile equipment now covers any piece of motor powered equipment on a work-site that carries the weight of the operator. For example: zoom-boom, reach trucks, forklifts, riding lawnmowers, riding snowblowers, yard tractors, skid-steer, gators etc.
This course will cover general material regarding pre-use inspections, maintenance, operating techniques, safe operating practices, safe loading, safe carrying and safe unloading. Additionally, the legislative requirements (OHS Laws), policy development, checklist development, training record requirements and the requirement for powered mobile equipment job safety analysis will be covered. The participants in this course will be provided with enough information for their employer to understand the changes, and complete the worksite and equipment specific training as stipulated in the legislation. Specific modules on zoom-booms, scissor-lifts, skid-steer and forklifts will be covered as well as appropriate.
This course will satisfy 8 hours of the 16 hours of training minimally specified in the amendments.
This course is set up for professional drivers to review defensive driving techniques. The course covers collision avoidance techniques, vehicle inspections, safe operation of the vehicle and vehicle maintenance. Road conditions, trip planning and understanding the characteristics of other users of the roadways is also discussed.
