Supervisor Training Program is being offered in Lloydminster All Lloydminster Construction Association Members receive Merit member pricing The site supervisor is critical to any construction project's success. But while supervisors are provided with the equipment, materials and manpower they need, too often they are left without the knowledge to select, motivate and direct their workforce. Achieving peak performance from workers; assessing and assigning employees to appropriate tasks; effective time management and on-job safety are skills every successful supervisor needs. The Supervisor Training Program teaches these topics through a combination of in-class instruction and on-the-job training assignments. This program is Gold Seal-accredited with a value of six points. Each course provides instruction for a total of 39 hours of classroom training. On-the-job training assignments generally require up to 50 hours to complete. On-the-job training assignments generally require up to 50 hours to complete. Look in the new year for class dates.
