There are five one-hour classes and the class size is limited to 15 students. The workshops are led by an experienced trail professional and the students should expect an interactive discussion.
Content will include a discussion of typical workplace hazards associated with environmental conditions, tool and equipment use and material handling. Hazard mitigation methods will be reviewed. The concept of a Tool C.U.S.S. (Carrying, Using, Storing and Safety) will be introduced and a collection of hand tool training resources will be presented.
