You set up a training profile before you pay. It asks for more than a normal checkout does - your employer, your role, an emergency contact - because this is a training record, not a shopping cart. It is the file an auditor asks to see, and it is why you can pull your certificate up years from now instead of hunting for a PDF in your email. Give yourself five minutes and do it once.

About the course

What this course covers.

Propane is one of the most common fuels in workplaces and at home - useful, and dangerous if handled incorrectly. This course starts with what propane is, its characteristics, and its common uses, then works through the components of its vapour and liquid withdrawal systems.

It covers the rules and regulations that apply - the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) Code, the Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) Act, the Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS), and the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA) - and why each governing body is involved: protecting people and the environment from propane's hazards.

It closes with the practical side: safe transport and storage, what to inspect before using a cylinder, the step-by-step process for connecting and disconnecting cylinders, personal protective equipment, and basic emergency response.

Why it matters for compliance

Workers who need a formal ROT (Refill Operator Training) certification in Ontario still require a TSSA-approved provider and an in-person evaluation - this course alone does not satisfy that requirement.

Common questions

Questions buyers ask

How much does this course cost?

The course is 45.99 CAD per seat. Use code ONTRACK10 at checkout for 10 percent off an individual purchase, or set up a free On-Track Safety corporate account for 20 percent off every course for the first three months when training a fleet.

How long does the course take?

About 60 minutes of self-paced online content.

Does this satisfy Ontario's ROT certification requirement?

Not on its own. A worker who needs formal ROT (Refill Operator Training) certification in Ontario still needs a TSSA-approved provider and an in-person evaluation.

How is this different from On-Track's Propane Handling and Exchange course?

This course cites a different regulation set - the CSA Code, TDG Act, WHMIS, and CEPA - and was built in 2025. Propane Handling and Exchange cites CSA B149.2-10 and OSHA 1910.110 specifically and runs slightly longer.

Does the certificate expire?

No, the certificate does not expire.
