Live Virtual Classroom

LIVE Instructor Led Electrical Safety Training in a Web-Based Classroom

This is the same interactive training that we do live onsite. The perfect solution for companies that need high-quality NFPA 70E-based electrical safety training on a budget. Students can join the class using their computers or even cell phones from any location that has an internet connection.

Choose between Corporate Site-Specific Training or our open enrollment format.

Corporate Site-Specific Training will be a closed session held only for your employees. In this format, the training can be tailored to your needs. Together we find a time and date that fits your facility’s schedule so all your workers can attend together. Off-shift sessions can be provided if requested.

Open Enrollment Training is held as public sessions. This is a great option for employers that have small groups or individuals that need to be trained.

BCH Safety partners with Rozel to provide monthly Electrical and Arc flash Safety Virtual Classrooms. See the complete schedule by clicking below.

Interactive Online Electrical Safety Training

Rozel’s Live Virtual Classroom is realtime and instructor-led by the same instructors used to conduct on-site training. Your workers will have real-time interaction with our trainer – same as if we were completing training at your location. Our classes engage students using the same teaching methods that we employ in our face-to-face setting. Students will be able to participate in conversation, share their experiences and ask questions. The instructor will use visual demonstrations, case studies, whiteboards, and classroom exercises to keep the students engaged in a learning environment.

What will we learn?

Our Electrical Safety in the Workplace training is specifically designed to meet the NFPA 70E training requirements for employees who work on or near energized electrical equipment.

This course will provide electrical workers with the knowledge and skill needed to recognize the shock and arc flash hazards that they encounter in their daily work activities. Students will understand the decision-making process necessary to assess the associated risk, perform job safety planning and select the appropriate risk control methods, including the proper use of PPE.

This course includes documented tests and hands-on sessions designed to meet the OSHA and NFPA 70E requirements for qualified worker training.
