In Canada, employers must educate workers about WHMIS and train them on workplace-specific procedures. Our sessions support that program; the workplace-specific part stays with the employer, who knows the site and its procedures.

Questions
Training and webinars: common questions
Is this a WHMIS certificate?
WHMIS training is not a one-off certificate: employers are responsible for educating and training their workers, including on workplace-specific procedures. Our sessions cover the general content and support your program, and attendees can receive a record of attendance.
How many people can attend?
Live sessions work best for small groups, so everyone can ask questions. For larger teams, a recording followed by a live question session works well.
Can you train our team on our own products?
Yes. Sessions are most useful when they use your own SDSs and labels as examples.
Do you cover the EU and UK rules?
Yes. Sessions can cover CLP and GB CLP labels, the EU's new hazard classes, and the differences between markets.
