Excavation and Trenching Competent Person Certification - Hailey
Excavation and Trenching Competent Person Certification Course Description: The course is designed to meet OSHA requirements for excavation and trenching competent person training. The course includes professional classroom theory instruction, participant handouts, final written exam, group activities, field exercises and practical evaluation.
Curriculum covers OSHA regulatory requirements including, inspections and identification of potential and existing hazards inherent to working in or around excavations and trenches, prevention of trench collapses, atmospheric and water hazards, entry and exit requirements, working with heavy machinery, materials handling, traffic controls, overhead and underground utilities. and protective systems including sloping, shoring, and shielding. Participants will be familiarized with prevention methods, and the duties and responsibilities of the Competent Person at an excavation site.
Excavation and Trenching Field Exercise and Practical Evaluation: Course includes construction site training on worker safety while performing excavation and trenching activities. Participants will create an excavation plan, conduct site hazard assessments, practice soil sampling techniques, and select and inspect protective systems for entry.
What is an excavation or trench: An Excavation is any man-made cut, cavity, trench, or depression formed by earth removal. A Trench is a narrow excavation where the depth is greater than the width.
Who Should Attend: Required for employer designated Competent Persons. OSHA requires that there be a Competent Person present whenever workers enter an excavation or trench. All workers that are exposed to excavation and trenching operations are required to be trained in the hazards and safe work practices. Initial training and refresher training every three years, or when the employer has reason to believe that any affected employee does not have the understanding and skills required to ensure safety.
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

Fundamentals of SCADA and Telemetry is divided into three parts, each covering key aspects of modern SCADA systems.
Part 1 – High-Performance HMI introduces a design philosophy that enhances operator effectiveness, especially during abnormal situations. Developed by PAS Company in 2008 and now an industry standard, it emphasizes practices like hierarchical design, smart use of color, pattern recognition, and data contextualization, while also addressing operator ergonomics, control room layout, and managing change. Part 2 – Secure in the Cloud focuses on Cloud-based SAAS concepts, emphasizing security from field systems to Cloud-resident SCADA servers. Participants will explore the benefits and risks of connected systems, addressing key questions about internet accessibility and security threats. Part 3 – Overcoming Telemetry and SCADA Issues for Remote Sites offers tools and strategies for addressing connectivity challenges, environmental obstacles, and aging infrastructure. Demonstrations of cellular and radio telemetry systems provide scalable solutions to maintain reliability, reduce manual interventions, and enhance efficiency. This course blends technical insights, cost-effective strategies, and case studies to improve scalability and sustainability in water and wastewater monitoring systems.

Participants will learn the theoretical aspects of electrical safety and will have opportunities to demonstrate and practice these critical skills. They will learn to identify when additional training or instruction may be necessary for the safety of themselves or coworkers. This course will help establish employees as “qualified persons” under OSHA and NFPA standards. It will also help create and maintain a culture of safety in the workplace.
This hands-on approach to electrical safety is ideal for any individual who works around electrical equipment or for those who oversee these personnel.
Topics Covered Include:
• Electrical hazards and how to identify them
• Effects of electricity on the body and mechanism of injury
• Relationship between various standards, regulations and oversight agencies
• Employer and employee responsibilities
• Approach and protection boundaries
• Electrically safe work conditions
• Energized work permitting
• Energy control procedures and equipment
• PPE selection, testing and application
• Test equipment selection and application
• Basic first aid and incident response for electrical incidents.
