About us
In the 1970's, our founder was crippled in a mining accident. His training for the job consisted of 45 minutes of instructions on how to drive a TEREX rock truck fully loaded up and down a mountain. The training was inadequate and am paying the consequences for the rest of my life. We understand that an injured employee and his employer are not the only ones affected by an incident. Entire families are affected, many times for generations. That's why we are in this business, to make training available (and affordable) for anyone to assist in preventing injuries at work or home.

It's simple, when it comes to safety, we want everyone to be trained; No Excuses, No Bull. We focus our efforts in creating effective affordable and accessible solutions so that everyone can be trained, minimizing the cost, the resources needed, and train 24/7, anytime and place.

Environmental Awareness
Frequently Asked Questions
The course reviews the EPA's March 2011 rules regulating air toxics, including mercury, emitted from large industrial boilers and solid waste incinerators.
EPA decided to keep the standards from taking effect so they could ensure the rules reflected new information and additional public comments gathered afterward.
In December 2011, EPA re-proposed the rules to reflect the new information gathered during the delay, with finalization expected later that year.
The course frames these air toxics standards around significant health benefits for children and families, tying the mercury emissions rules to public health outcomes.
EPA and the Obama Administration are described as committed to these standards, underscoring the rules as a continuing regulatory priority rather than a one-time announcement.
