Across all industries in Canada, the most common work-related injuries result from car accidents. Defensive Driving is a safety course addressed to all employees, regardless of their line of work, and teaches students how to avoid or respond to a car accident during or after work hours.
Our Defensive Driving program is compliant with the OHS Act. Therefore, it is suitable for any workplace that aims to significantly lower this risk of accidents by helping students recognize potential hazards before they occur and effectively respond to an impending collision.
Our easy to use platform allows you to obtain a Defensive Driving certificate recognized by employers who strive to meet the demands of the legislation.
This course will not help you with the 3 Demerit Points or taking the N off your Driver's License. That type of Defensive Driving course has a different structure, content, and testing section. To find a Defensive Driving course for that purpose, visit your province's Registry of Motors & Vehicles Website.
Many employees are required to drive as part of their job, whether they use a personal or company automobile. Being at risk of car accidents can result in damaged property and personal injury or death. All people who drive an automobile can benefit from training in Defensive Driving.
While this is a commercial page where we provide Defensive Driving online training courses, we've also created a dedicated page where you can learn more about Defensive Driving programs.
