PA One Call - Coordinate
2023-07-11 08:00 - 09:00 | Webinar
Learn how to use the Coordinate PA application to increase project safety & collaboration – No cost – PDH 1
With this one-hour WebEx webinar you will learn how to use Pennsylvania 811’s Coordinate PA application. Coordinate PA is the next generation of utility coordination. Coordinate PA is a web service application developed by Pennsylvania 811 to support Public Works and utility project planning and utility coordination within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Instead of meeting to discuss plans, or copy maps, or create a spreadsheet of projects, Utility companies, public works directors and others describe their projects on a map. Coordinate PA then shows the projects and the project timeframes for users and automatically identifies opportunities for collaboration between projects. The user can see project overlap within a geographic area (for example, Main Street from First Avenue and Seventh Avenue) and can query for overlap within a specific time frame. Coordinate PA integrates with Pennsylvania 811’s Web Ticket Entry process to create Design and Excavation notifications to increase project safety and reduce project costs as required by Pennsylvania’s Underground Utility Line Protection Law. This course is equal to 1 PDH for Professional Engineering Training. If you would like a certificate of participation, please wait 5 days after the event and then login to Pennsylvania 811’s website, select My Account and then My Participation to print your certificate.

CPWR’s Foundations for Safety Leadership for Residential Construction (FSL4Res)
2023-05-30 14:00 | Webinar
CPWR recently adapted our popular Foundations for Safety Leadership training program to create the Foundations for Safety Leadership for Residential Construction (FSL4Res). The FSL4Res is designed to meet the unique safety issues found in the residential construction sector, particularly fall hazards, which remain the sector’s major cause of workplace fatalities. The FSL4Res covers the same content as the FSL, including critical leadership skills for the job site. The main difference is that three new real-world scenarios have been added that illustrate how foremen and other frontline leaders can use the leadership skills to prevent fall hazards on site. Trainers can tailor the FSL4Res to different audiences and locations, including delivering it as either a single 2.5-hour session (like the original FSL) or as four 30-minute and one short booster sessions.

Panelists:

Bradley Evenoff, MD, MPH, Chief, Division of General Medical Sciences, Department of Internal Medicine Washington University in St.Louis
