Re: certification

The process to train and certify is absolutely ridiculous. The old method of breaking in a faller is the only thing that works. The stupid expensive course should be canceled immediately.
Certification Is OK, but why should we pay. If we got something for it fine. But it was rammed down our throat as part of a "SAFETY" program. Isn't all safty costs supossed to be covered by the companys.

Re: certification

You are so right, breaking in with second growth I think will give them a false sense of security. Totally different ball game out in the real world.
