How the course works

From the day you enroll to the day your card arrives, here's exactly what to expect.

  1. Enroll and pay securely

    Choose the course, check out and get instant access. Your 180 days start the first time you open the course.

  2. Set up your account

    Confirm your full legal name exactly as it should appear on your card, set up your identity check and agree to the course rules. Takes about two minutes.

  3. Study at your own pace

    Work through 22 modules of video lessons, readings and jobsite scenarios. Short check-in questions appear along the way. Your time and place save automatically.

  4. Pass the section quizzes

    Each section ends with a short quiz. Pass it to unlock the next section, so every topic is covered before you move on.

  5. Take the final exam

    The final exam unlocks once you’ve completed all 30 hours. Score 80% or higher to pass.

  6. Consultant review and signature

    Our safety consultant reviews your training record and signs your card, usually within 1 to 2 business days.

  7. Download, and watch the mail

    Download your wallet card and certificate right away. A wallet card is mailed to you.

How your 30 hours are counted

Your clock runs while the course is open and you’re actively working: watching, reading or answering questions. It pauses if you switch tabs, minimize the window or step away, and a “Still there?” prompt appears after a few minutes without activity. Only active time counts toward your 30 hours.

Course integrity

Why your card is worth something

A completion card only matters if employers can trust it. These rules protect the value of the card you earn.

Identity checks

We confirm it’s really you taking the training, at sign-up and at random points during the course.

Check-in questions

Short questions appear while you study. Answer within the time shown to keep your session active.

No skipping ahead

Videos must be watched in full. You can rewind and replay anything, but not fast-forward past new material.

One window at a time

Training time only counts in one browser window on one device at a time.

Your own words

Written answers must be typed by you. Pasting is blocked.

No bots or AI agents

Automated tools and AI agents may not be used to take the course. Sessions that show automation earn no time and are reviewed.
