Common questions

Yes. The course, the live deck and both surveys are free. Claiming the template into your AhaSlides account is free too.

The course itself is self-paced and online, and the live deck lets you add a live session. Whether online delivery meets your local rules depends on the law that applies to you, so check 29 CFR 1910.146(c)(2) or ask your own counsel.

At assignment + when duties or spaces change; annual refresher best practice.

Employees who work near permit-required confined spaces but do not enter them (maintenance helpers, plant operators, utility, food & beverage, wastewater, agriculture/grain, shipping); entrants/attendants/supervisors need full training.

Record completion in your own LMS or record system, so you can show who finished the course and when. Check the retention period that applies to you in 29 CFR 1910.146(c)(2).

Yes, everything. Change the wording, swap scenarios for ones from your workplace, add your logo, or remove parts that don't apply. Keep anything your own law requires you to cover.

Your own details, each highlighted inside the course:
  • Confined space inventory
  • Confined space program contact
  • Rescue service and number
  • LMS or record system
Then edit anything else you like: wording, scenarios, your logo.
