Not too long ago, safety training was conducted primarily in classrooms, led by foremen and supervisors. Unfortunately, this approach had many problems. It interrupted employees in the middle of important tasks and the meetings themselves were often poorly conducted by individuals who were not professional trainers. As a result, many employees disengaged from the whole process.
Today, however, things are different. Many companies are using online courses for their safety training with great results. Delivered via the internet, our online interactive training is ready when and where employees are, engaging and involving them directly in the learning process for better understanding and retention. The flexibility of online training makes it possible to provide a consistent level of training to each employee, regardless of their schedule or physical location. And new hires can be trained as soon as they walk in the door.
But it’s not just the flexibility of online training that makes it effective. Our interactive courses are constructed to keep employees engaged and require them to pay attention in order to progress through the material. They use full motion HD video filmed in real-life workplace settings, and each chapter includes quiz questions that are part of the learning process. If an employee answers a question incorrectly, they are remediated to ensure they fully understand the material.
Additionally, training activity is tracked and recorded, along with test scores, for easy reference and reporting. And with over 170 courses on important safety and regulatory compliance topics to choose from, our interactive online courses are a more efficient and effective way to do your safety training.
We offer ADAPTIVE LEARNING COURSES, which are customized on-the-fly to teach employees only what they don’t know, cutting training time in half. We also offer MICRO-LEARNING COURSES, which are 2-3 minute HD videos with tests, used primarily with smartphones and tablets, and gets training to employees where they work. Our FULL-LENGTH INTERACTIVE COURSES are comprehensive and interactive, with quizzing and remediation that increases information retention, while our VIDEO STREAMING (VOD) COURSES uses live-action HD videos to provide information.
A study by the University of Washington found that online training was just as effective as in-person training, and in some cases, it was even more effective. It also found that employees who took online training were more likely to retain the information long-term.
Online safety training is key for employers and employees alike, as it not only meets OSHA regulations and avoids costly fines due to non-compliance but also saves money in the long run. This type of preventative education equips workers with the knowledge they need to stay safe while on the job, reducing accidents that can lead to expensive medical expenses, lost productivity, or insurance costs.
To sum up, online safety training is a reliable and successful method of educating your personnel on essential safety topics and regulatory compliance. It grants workers versatility, involvement, and interactivity along with the capability to keep track of their progress which can ultimately contribute to employee retention success, adherence as well as cost-savings. In today’s corporate climate, where time is precious, it’s wise to take advantage of all the technology at our fingertips for us so that we can ensure both our team member’s security and also organizational conformity.
Our company offer several usage plans to fit your training budget, with an “Enterprise License” giving employees unlimited access to all of the courses in our library, for a year or the “By-the-Access” plan that allow you only to pay when an employee takes a course.
