Came here from Texas for a Qualified person training in fall protection which lasts all week. The instructor was a subject matter expert and the facility is top class with all the equipment you can think of for demonstrations. From what i hear this is the best place in america to come get trained in fall protection. Not only are they a training group, but they also provide their engineering services for fall protection projects.
