Advanced Safety Orientation for Managers and Supervisors in Construction

Course Description

The 27-hour Advanced Safety Orientation for Managers and Supervisors in Construction program is ideal for all construction workers, including project managers and superintendents. While this program contains some of the same courses included in other advanced orientation programs, the program for managers/supervisors features safety management information and an even wider range of topics.

This compilation of courses is based on OSHA 30 program and is also available to construction workforce outside of the USA. The OSHA 30 course can only be completed within the USA and is not available to students outside OSHA’s geographical limits.

At the end of the course, and after passing the final test, you will receive a Certificate of Completion from Underwriter Laborotories (UL is the leading global safety company) and PDH STAR.
