Where Can I Find Public Training Courses in Ontario?

If you’re looking for public occupational health and safety training courses in Ontario, it’s important to choose a provider that offers compliant, up-to-date training led by experienced instructors.

At Correct Compliance in Fergus, Ontario, we proudly offer Working at Heights training, Working at Heights Refresher training and equipment inspection courses. These public courses can be a flexible and cost-effective solution for both workers and employers.

We are excited to offer public safety training courses in Ontario with small class sizes, expert-led instruction and hands-on learning opportunities designed to help workers stay safe and compliant on the job.

What Are Public Training Courses?

Public training courses are scheduled sessions that individuals or small groups can register for, rather than booking private on-site training for an entire company. These courses are ideal for:

• Individual workers needing certification

• Small businesses with only a few employees requiring training

• Contractors and tradespeople

• Workers renewing expiring certifications

• Employers looking for flexible scheduling options

At Correct Compliance, public courses are intentionally kept smaller (with up to 12 participants per session), which helps create a more interactive learning environment where participants can ask questions and receive personalized instruction.

Working at Heights Training in Ontario

One of the most commonly required safety certifications in Ontario is Working at Heights (WAH) training.

Under Ontario law (Ontario Regulation 213/91), workers on construction projects who use fall protection systems must complete a CPO-approved Working at Heights training course before performing their work.

Public Working at Heights Courses

Correct Compliance’s Working at Heights course is a full-day classroom program designed for workers in Ontario’s construction industry. The course combines both theory and practical training to help workers understand:

• Fall hazards

• Fall prevention methods

• Proper use of fall protection equipment

• Safe work practices when working at heights

• Equipment inspection basics

• Rescue planning concepts

Upon successful completion, participants receive a Training Certificate valid for three years from the issue date. Correct Compliance currently offers public Working at Heights training with small class sizes, in-person instruction and hands-on, practical training components.

Working at Heights Refresher Courses

In Ontario, Working at Heights certification is valid for three years. Before the certification expires, workers must successfully complete an approved refresher program to maintain compliance.

Public WAH Refresher Training

Correct Compliance also offers public Working at Heights Refresher training sessions for workers with a current, valid WAH certificate. This half-day refresher course helps reinforce key safety concepts and provides updated training on:

• Fall hazards

• Fall protection systems

• Anchor points

• Equipment inspections

• Safe work procedures

• Practical fall protection techniques

Like the full certification course, successful participants receive renewed certification valid for another three years. Refresher training is especially important because Ontario employers are responsible for ensuring workers maintain valid Working at Heights certification records.

Equipment Inspection

In addition to Working at Heights programs, Correct Compliance also offers public Equipment Inspection training courses.

This half-day classroom course is designed to help workers understand how to properly inspect workplace safety equipment and identify potential issues before equipment is used on the job site.

Public Equipment Inspection training can be especially beneficial for:

• Supervisors

• Health and safety representatives

• Construction workers

• Maintenance staff

• Employers responsible for workplace safety compliance

Equipment inspections are a critical part of maintaining a safe workplace and reducing the risk of incidents caused by damaged, defective or improperly maintained equipment.
