**Effecting Ontario only, as of April 1, 2015 our online Fall Protection course will no longer be valid for the Construction Industry in Ontario. Our course is still valid for all other provinces and other industries in Ontario can still use our training. If our Fall Protection course is used for anything covered under the construction regulations (in Ontario), you may be at risk. For example: If an industrial establishment has a renovation happening onsite, which involves construction and their staff who have taken our training is doing the work, the MOL would consider this Construction related, therefore this activity would fall under the construction regulations.
