Ground Disturbance Training and why it’s important

The Canadian Common ground Alliance’s 2019 DIRT Report suggests that there were more than 48 damages per workday, and that damage to buried assets is estimated to have costed over 1.2 billion dollars in Canada alone.

How can you help prevent damage and keep your teams safe?

Our best-selling online Ground Disturbance Level II® is the training solution that has helped to save money and helped to keep workers safe. From January to July of this year, our Ground Disturbance courses helped to train over 2,500 workers.

Our courses offer learners a modern, engaging visual experience. Featuring realistic and interactive 3D animated scenarios. It is an immersive exercise which puts YOU in the shoes of the Ground Disturbance Supervisor and helps you to build the skills and knowledge needed to lead a project to a safe and successful outcome. If you’re in Alberta, you can take advantage of our optional LearnerVerified technology, so you can be assured that learner fraud is non-existent.
