Program Status: Currently Accepting Applications

Welcome to the Tower Crane Documentation and Compliance Course from Bigfoot Academy. In this online training session, you will learn why proper documentation is essential for safe and legally compliant tower crane operations in British Columbia. Documentation is more than paperwork. It is the proof that a jobsite is meeting the requirements of WorkSafeBC regulations and CSA Z248 standards. When inspections occur, accurate records demonstrate that permits, engineering approvals, inspections, and safety controls are in place. By the end of this course, you will understand which documents are required, who is responsible for maintaining them, and how proper documentation protects both workers and companies.
