Do you or your workers need ground disturbance training? If your operation plans, manages, or undertakes any kind of ground disturbance, the answer is almost certainly yes - and Ground Disturbance 201 is the course built for the people responsible for that work.

Our online Ground Disturbance 201 course, previously known as Ground Disturbance for Supervisors Level 2 or ADPC Level II, is designed for planners, managers, supervisors, and employees who develop, plan, or undertake ground disturbance. It is endorsed by the Alberta Common Ground Alliance.

How the online course compares to a classroom session
The Ground Disturbance 201 course contains the same course content and examination criteria as a classroom-delivered course endorsed to the Alberta Common Ground Alliance Ground Disturbance 201 Standard. It is aligned with the IRP 17 standard and has been submitted, assessed, and fully endorsed by the Alberta Common Ground Alliance against their Ground Disturbance of Supervisors 201 Standard.
