Our Bucket Truck Training gives your team the confidence and competency to work safely at height – and to do it in full compliance with Ontario’s legislation.

​Built for construction crews, utility workers, arborists, and industrial sites, this course goes beyond the basics.

We walk workers through real-world hazards, safe operating techniques, and the responsibilities set out in the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA), Ontario Regulation 213/91 – Construction Projects, O. Reg. 851 – Industrial Establishments, and the CSA standards for boom-type elevating work platforms.

​It’s practical, hands-on, and designed to help operators make good decisions on the job – not just pass a theory session.
