ELECTRICAL SAFETY TRAINING SYSTEM (ESTS) ELECTRICAL WORKERS (USA) COURSE OVERVIEW

The Electrical Safety Training System (ESTS) is a state-of-the-art online multimedia safety training system that provides affordable, high quality, impactful, and credible electrical safety qualification, refresher, and awareness training. It uses 3D graphics, videos, and narrated content to provide information on arc flash and shock dangers, how to protect yourself from them, and how to follow up on preventive and protective control measures.

Unique to ESTS is its 3D virtual electrical workplace classroom, where you are able to apply your new knowledge in interactive scenarios about arc flash, shock, and application of the NFPA 70E Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace.

This course was developed by a leading electrical safety subject matter expert with over 22 years of experience as an electrical engineer. In addition to having vast experience as an independent electrical safety consultant, the developer was the first Vice-Chair of the CSA Z462 Workplace Electrical Safety Technical Committee and is currently a CSA Z462 voting member and leader of Working Group 8 annexes.
