Full-length training DVD, nearly 250 slides and video


This is an interactive training DVD that has multiple navigable screens (nearly 250) designed to assist in training to United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Excavation (Subpart P) requirements. Material is suitable for adoption to many areas as "best practices". Developed originally under a 2005 OSHA Harwood Grant program, the disc is being offered at cost to support training initiatives wherever they may be needed. Value has been estimated by some to be $300-$400.

The DVD contains slides, video, and documents to help design and provide a training program for your own company or others. Intended to be instructor-led, the entire DVD and all of its parts can be presented in a 5-6 hour class, depending on your training approach, logistics, and time. It is easy to resume a class where left off, should you choose to divide the class into components.

Each section of the presentation has an interactive quiz, and the disc includes a PDF pre- and post- test and answer keys.

Also included on the DVD are:

Facilitator's Guide

Student Handbook

Excavation Checklist

Daily Trenching Log

OSHA regulations

Four "Fatal Facts" handouts

Testimonial Videos

Over 50 video clips, and a full-length (37 minutes) stand-alone video


Ten percent of every purchase will be donated to the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation

You will note on the YouTube site that this DVD is referenced - you are welcome to use the video from the YouTube site at no cost, but this DVD offers a great deal more information and flexibility in use. It can also provide you with the tools to provide "Competent Person" level training. (Completion of the training does NOT make you a Competent Person, only your employer can do that)

Some of the comments we have received on the Video:

 

  • Very informative. Every construction worker should watch. Add to your company safety program.
  • This is a good reference material for our Construction Safety Training here in the Philippines. The video can reinforce our power point presentations. Very informative.
  • Excellent video! This is the most informative trenching and shoring video we have seen. We can't wait to share this information with our trainees.
  • Thanks. Excellent training. Greetings from Colombia.
  • Outstanding training video! Very informative. I would like to use this in my training.
  • Great video! I'd like to use this for training. i come from an island called Tinian in the Northern Mariana Islands, a US Territory. We will be starting some excavation work and this video will be a perfect addition to the slide show I'll have. THANK YOU!!
  • Excellent training and thanks so much for sharing. Incredibly well done.


In response to receipt of DVD:

I went through your training DVD with the quizzes and WOW, I am so impressed and can’t wait to show the training to our guys and girls!

This is so much more than I could have ever offered myself. There seems to be a lack of in-depth training into the dangers of working around excavations and trenches here in our area. I am just going to double check that all the depths mentioned are the same for us in Canada!

In parts of Canada workers are required to take Ground Disturbance 201, however it really only tells them the requirements, especially for potential contact with utilities – doesn’t truly explain/show how to achieve what they expect in terms of the entire excavation process, and the other hazards that go with it. Your DVD really bridges that gap between the legislated training and actually working with/in excavations and trenches.
