BC REGISTRANTS TAKE NOTE:
For those registering from a BC Ski Resort: Technical Safety BC requires all passenger ropeway trainers in British Columbia to be certified.
Successful completion of the LIFT 150 course (and final exam) is required to qualify course participants for certification by Technical Safety BC as passenger ropeway trainers. Technical Safety BC issues passenger ropeway trainer certificates and these certificates name the ropeway types for which the certificate holder may provide training.
The second step in the certification process for passenger ropeway trainers in British Columbia has recently been introduced by Technical Safety BC. Training material developed and implemented through an additional online course, “Passenger Ropeways and Passenger Conveyors: Act and Regulations”, highlights regulations and requirements applicable to passenger ropeways and passenger conveyors and their owners/operators, in British Columbia. Successful completion of this online module is the second step in the certification process for BC operators.
The Passenger Ropeways and Passenger Conveyors: Act and Regulations course is found on the TSBC website and is free of charge. See this link: Passenger Ropeways Trainer | Technical Safety BC
