Practical Solutions for a Safer Workplace
Online Training
Your schedule is hectic, so we’ve got your back with online training options. You can access and interact with our courses anywhere, at anytime, on your computer, smartphone, or tablet. Our courses combine video, high-end graphics, real-life situations, and online testing to deliver the information. Take a look at our categorized topics below.
Access Online Training
PLEASE NOTE: Online training provides theory-only awareness training. The content presented in these online training courses is solely for information purposes. A practical training component should be completed by your employer to confirm competency.
To receive a certificate of awareness to verify your online training, you’ll need to score 80 per cent or higher on the final course test. You will have three attempts to achieve this score before the course will be disabled and you will need to repurchase. Courses cost $26.25 each and must be completed within 90 days.
Please note: Once the course has been completed you will need to re-purchase the course in order to refresh training or to retake the course again. There are NO REFUNDS or switching courses once an online training course has been purchased.
We recommend printing online training certificates at the time of completion for your records. Online user accounts will remain online and be accessible for two years. After two years all profiles will be deleted and no longer accessible. Once deleted, to complete more training, you will need to recreate a new user profile. If you need training records after these two years have lapsed, you will need to contact the CSAM office and we will be able to provide you with records of completed courses.

5. Once you click on the confirmation link, you will be redirected back to the login page. Just login with your new username and password that you created.
6. If you see a “404 error” appear after you attempt to login then there are technical problems with the course provider. You will want to try again in a few minutes – so CLOSE your web browser and then re-open your web browser and head back to SHIELD to try your login again.
To take a course after you have registered:
1. Head to SHIELD and login with your username and password.

4. Submit the form. There is a short delay needed after the course is purchased before it will be available to you.
5. Please wait at least 10 seconds after the “purchase courses” step has completed before you attempt to start the course. You MAY need to close your web browser and re-open it and login if you don’t see your course purchase in the system right away.
