2025 Q1 OOH Safety Training Event

We are thrilled to announce that Formetco is once again offering a unique, live and in-person safety training class specifically designed for workers and managers in the Outdoor Advertising industry. We invite you to come learn, network, and grow in a social environment with your industry peers.

This highly interactive and hands-on training will cover several key areas:

• OSHA 10 hour class: An engaging course that covers topics pertinent to the billboard industry. Participants who meet the classroom requirements will be awarded an OSHA Outreach course completion card.

• National Safety Council CPR/First Aid/AED class: This valuable session aims to meet OSHA requirements for remote workers. A certificate will be issued upon completion.

• Dealing with OSHA and contractors: We'll discuss how to handle situations such as an OSHA inspection or citation, dealing with contractors, and where to begin when developing a safety program.
• Climber training certification: This popular segment includes classroom training, practical instruction, and observed climbing techniques. Students will start with beginner skills and gradually progress to more advanced techniques.

Formetco's Safety Training offers a wonderful mix of practical knowledge and industry networking. This is not just about learning; it's about connecting and growing together with other professionals in the Outdoor field.

Join us for this unique opportunity to enhance your skills, increase your safety knowledge, and connect with others in your industry. We look forward to seeing you there!
