During a train-the-trainer workshop, you will complete a 10-hour accreditation program about how to teach torch safety. Through classroom instruction and hands-on torching activities, you learn the latest industry best safety practices for torch-applied roof systems. You also learn the teaching skills needed to train others about torch safety. After successfully completing this program, you will be authorized to conduct CERTA certification training for roofing workers. Authorized trainers receive training materials, including an instructors guide and English and Spanish editions of the CERTA student manual and training video.
This course will benefit roofing professionals at all levels who need to implement and expand their torch safety programs.
For this computer-based course, each participant must have access to his or her own computer/device with a microphone and webcam. Using a cellphone is discouraged because it is not conducive to a full-day class.
Participants will be required to pass a hands-on demonstration of their torching ability. To perform this demonstration, participants will need to build a mockup if their company does not already have one. (Instructions for building the mockup will be provided in the registration confirmation email.) A few weeks before the class, the CERTA administrator will contact registrants to schedule their 30-minute hands-on session, which will take place the day after class via Zoom.
