Publishing & Authoring Services
I have existing training materials that we use at our workplace. Are we able to deliver them online?
Yes. Worksite Safety’s instructional design team is able to take your existing training materials and convert them into an online format, or even integrate existing materials as add-on modules for pre-existing courses. As an example, we could combine your site-orientation with a WHMIS 2015 program that is tailored to your workplace and it’s unique hazards.
I need training for a specific workplace hazard. Can you develop a custom training program for us?
Our team of subject matter experts and instructional designers are able to develop custom training modules based on your unique needs and workplace hazards. Once completed, these modules can be delivered in any number of different formats, including classroom training, online training, and book based learning. Contact us for a consultation to learn more.
I don’t need a custom course for my workplace, but I do need to address certain hazards. Can courses be adjusted to better fit my workplace?
Yes. Custom modules can be authored and added to any of our existing courses to better suit the hazards that are unique to your workers and workplace. This can be as simple as adding a site orientation or including custom safety data sheets. Contact us to learn more.
