Electrical Hazard Awareness Program (EHAP) & Aerial Rescue (AR) OFFERINGS

ASM is offering EHAP and AR as a combo in 2017!  You can take one class or both in the same location. Please review the registration form carefully.  You can register to take EHAP only, AR only, or both.  

CHANGE for 2017: Registration fees DO NOT include a TCIA manual. If you are following the TCIA program you can purchase those manuals seperately. 

Both EHAP and AR programs meet the OSHA/MIOHSA and ANSI requirements for safety education.

ASM encourages all attendees to register 5 business days before the course so enough food and materials can be available.

All arborists must be trained to recognize and avoid electrical hazards.

EHAP helps you meet yearly OSHA & MIOSHA safety requirements. For anyone who works near utility lines.

EHAP is an employer training program you can implement to meet your OSHA and MIOSHA safety requirements.  EHAP must be used in combination with documented on-the-job skills training and verification to meet OSHA 1910.269 requirements.

CEUS- This course is approved for 7.5 CTSP credits through TCIA and 7.5 hours through ISA.

Class runs 8am-4pm. Check in begins at 7:30am.

AERIAL RESCUE - The most common reason for double fatalities in tree care is failed aerial rescue attempts – an emergency could develop any time one of your crews is aloft and your employees must know how to react. This program helps you protect your employees and meet the aerial rescue training requirements mandated by ANSI Z133.1 and OS.

Each attendee receives instruction in a workshop regarding performing an aerial rescue, and the job site procedures to help prevent the need for an aerial rescue.  The TCIA Tree Care Academy Aerial Rescue Program is a national credential that educates attendees and manual purchasers on aerial rescue procedures.  This program also allows companies to keep track of training procedures their employees are educated in for MIOSHA and ANSI Standards. Training and practice are the best practices to keep our industry safe.

This Aerial Rescue Training is needed as one of the qualifications to taking the ISA Tree Worker/Climber Certification test. 

CEUS - This course is approved for 5 CTSP credits through TCIA and 5 hours through ISA.
