NWDTW 2024

This training is a safety requirement for anyone working in/over/near water. It covers basic swimming techniques, proper PPE (including the proper use and types of PFDs), cold water information, as well as safety policies when working near water. All employees working in/over/near water are also required to take a refresher of this course every 5 years.

In order to properly conduct the course, a room for presenting the material is required and a pool or open water area will be needed for the practical portion of the training. The presentation will take 1.5-2 hours to present and the in-the-water practical portion will take anywhere from 2-3 hours (maybe more) depending on the number of participants.
