ABSTRACT:

An aerial object position determination system including an acoustic detection module comprising a plurality of micro­ phones positioned about a central axis of the first unit; a computer vision module comprising multiple cameras posi­ tioned about the central axis of the first unit; an automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) receiver pro­ vided with the first unit. One or more processors are con­ figured to receive data from the acoustic detection module, the computer vision module and the ADS-B receiver. Based on the received data, the one or more processors determine a position of an aerial object. The determined position of the aerial object is transmitted to a receiving device.

The course culminates in an extensive situational training exercise (STX). The course prepares sergeants for positions of higher responsibility as section leaders. Major subject areas include: Leadership, training, physical fitness training, map reading, land navigation, counseling, soldier team development, basic supply and maintenance procedures, and common field crafts. The object of WLC is to graduate students who will return to their units with the knowledge that will assist them to:

* Be technically and tactically proficient.

* Make sound decisions.

* Plan correctly.

* Follow the Army professional ethics.

* Communicate effectively.

* Apply soldier-team development.

* Lead and train their subordinates in a "go to war" atmosphere.

What is OSHA 30-Hour General Industry Training? 

If you’re a safety manager or supervisor, our OSHA 30-Hour Outreach for General Industry course is your guide to creating a culture of safety in your workplace. You'll get a comprehensive look at the policies, procedures, and standards covered by OSHA 29 CFR 1910.

You’ll learn about the basic elements of a workplace safety and health program and how to manage both. This includes understanding an employer's responsibilities for worker safety, as well as worker's rights to learn about the potential hazards of their job. 

The course also covers all the hazards you might encounter in many different industries, from scaffolding to bloodborne pathogens. You'll learn about essential safety procedures like lockout/tagout protocols, machine guarding mechanisms, and industrial hygiene.

Who is OSHA 30 General Industry Training Required For?

OSHA 30 General Industry is not required but is recommended for safety directors, foremen, and field supervisors. All workers in general industries can benefit from it. Examples of these industries include manufacturing, warehousing, distribution, and health care. 

General Industry also includes but is not limited to the following industries:

• Healthcare

• Manufacturing

• Warehousing

• Distribution

• Retail

Certified to provide Field Inspections of Real Estate Properties for the following:

• Property (Interior/Exterior)

• Insurance Loss

• No-Contact Bankruptcy

• Disaster

• Foreclosure

• Commercial

• Merchant Site

• Equipment (Collateral)

 Online

• Topics covered are UAS maintenance, flight planning, right-of-way (ROW) safety and operations around critical infrastructure, and data preparation. Sessions are live allowing ample opportunity for interaction with the instructors and fellow pilots.

Onsite

• The onsite training is less about the “classroom” and more about hands-on instruction. Unlike many other training opportunities in the UAS community, pilots have ample stick time with a commercial UAS and time on structures that a pilot may be asked to commercially inspect. Those structures include Communication Towers and Utility (Transmission & Distribution) Structures. Emphasis is made towards receiving and executing proficiently a client's Non-Destructive Testing photography shot list while maintaining safe and secure operations.

Certification & Career

• To receive ASCEND Level II certification, each trainee must demonstrate competency in the UAS inspection task trained on and provide a certificate of OSHA 30 completion..

• What Is 30-Hour OSHA Construction Training?

You need every tool you can get when you’re responsible for keeping a construction site safe and secure. Our OSHA 30-Hour Outreach Training for Construction teaches you precisely what you need to know to build a safety culture and reduce job-site accidents.

Additionally, you’ll receive a comprehensive overview of the policies, procedures, and best practices in OSHA’s 29 CFR 1926 standards for construction. The course also covers vital information about all the significant hazards found on the site.

For example, you’ll learn how to create and implement a safety and health program that addresses critical safety topics in the industry, such as stairways and ladders, confined spaces, hand and power tools, scaffolding, explosives, and blasting agents.

• What Is OSHA Certification?

OSHA does not certify workers, so there is no such thing as OSHA certification. However, OSHA does mandate that employers train their employees in the specific safety and health parts of their jobs.

The closest you can get to certification is OSHA Outreach training. When you pass an OSHA 30 test, you'll receive an official Department of Labor card. Don't need a DOL card? Click here.

• Who Should Take OSHA Construction Training?

OSHA Construction training is beneficial for workers and contractors. In its construction category, OSHA includes all work related to construction, alteration, repair, painting, and decorating. Some construction workers may need additional training for specialized work, and anyone with supervisory responsibilities should take OSHA Construction Safety Outreach Training.

Employees may need to take additional courses beyond OSHA 30-hour training to meet organization requirements, but those are ultimately employer responsibilities. OSHA 30-Hour Construction Training provides 30 hours of training on safety responsibility with an emphasis on hazard recognition of job site hazards so you can stay safe on the job site.
