Web-based Safety Courses

Trainamation is a suite of Web-based safety courses that provide training for corporate and government employees over the Internet. The suite combines original content and 3-D animation with a century of subject matter expertise. Initially, it will offer 15 courses, all of which involve disciplines where the company and its sister companies have expertise, including risk and safety advising, and human resource and management consulting. All courses use graphics, animation, and interactive testing to provide a more engaging and effective learning experience.

The company's Learning Management System (LMS) uses Internet and intranet technology to deliver training directly to employees' desktops. It provides organizations with easier tracking and administration of training; more precise measurement and verification of outcomes through integrated testing; and the ability to update course material to address changes in safety regulations.

The following courses are currently offered:
• bloodborne pathogens
• confined space entry
• fire extinguisher use
• fork-lift safety
• hazard communications
• hearing conservation
• lockout/tagout
• office ergonomics
• personal protective equipment
• private passenger auto
• respiratory protection
• slips, trips and falls
• travel security
• van driver safety
• workplace violence

A number of other courses are under development and the current offerings will be updated as issues evolve and regulations change. Branding of courses, such as adding a company logo or welcome screen, is provided as part of the standard service. Customization can be implemented as an additional service. Courses can be accessed by any Internet browser with a connection bandwidth as low as 28.8K.
