The courses are available within the Staff Training Management System of EmployeeSafe, which includes more than 150 online safety and worker development courses as well as custom course development to address district-specific training requirements.
Flu Pandemic for Administrators and Flu Preparation for all staff explore the context of the flu and response methods to both seasonal and global flu outbreaks. Bus Pre-Inspection, Transportation: Public Relations, Loading and Unloading Students with Disabilities and School Bus Emergency Evacuation instruct employees on how to manage safety issues related to the busing of students. All courses include post assessment to ensure the material was comprehended.
“We are seeing safety issues around transportation spike as a concern for school districts. As equipment ages and budgets do not allot for new busses, district safety officers need to ensure that bus drivers are using equipment safely, said
