Training Will Address New OSHA Crane Regulations

noreply@blogger.com (Convergence Training) — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 22:45:00 +0000

The new OSHA regulations on crane operation and certification just came out last week. Understandably, there are a lot of people interested in how this will affect them. In OSHA’s words, “approximately 267,000 construction, crane rental, and crane certification establishments employing about 4.8 million workers will be affected by this rule.” It’s one of OSHA’s biggest regulation overhauls in decades.

The new regulations only affect work having to do with construction. General industry work is not affected and will remain governed by the current standard. It’s important to understand the nature of what constitutes “construction work” by OSHA standards. If you are not familiar with these distinctions, I’d recommend reading this OSHA document on construction vs. maintenance/service work.

The major changes in the new regulations include:

• Federal requirements for the certification of crane operators
• Requirements for third-party crane operator certifiers
• Increased crane inspection requirements
• Requirements for working near electricity
• More rules for assembling/disassembling cranes
• New requirements for inspecting ground conditions prior to a lift
• Qualifications for riggers and signalpersons
• New requirements for using synthetic slings

You can read the full OSHA regulations by clicking here. If you’re very interested, you can read more about how the new regulations were agreed upon and how the specific changes were made by clicking here. Also, there’s a really good question and answer session OSHA held recently that’s very informative.

We’ve ramped up our production schedule to get out our new crane training modules out as soon as we can. We’re currently working on getting the storyboards aligned with the new rules. Two of our planned modules are entitled “Overhead Crane Training” and “Mobile Crane Training”. We’re also considering modules specifically about working around electricity and assembling/disassembling booms, because those are the two leading causes of death in crane-related incidents. We also might add a general module about rigging and slings.

Overhead cranes aren’t affected too much by the new OSHA regulations, just because the new regs only apply to construction work, and not to general industry. Mobile cranes and tower cranes will of course be greatly impacted.

All regulations related to crane maintenance, crane operation, and qualifications for signalpersons and riggers will take effect November 8, 2010. Crane operators will have up to four years to meet the new certification requirements.

Convergence Server Enterprise - Key Features

noreply@blogger.com (Convergence Training) — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 14:52:00 +0000

We're closing in on the release of Convergence Server Enterprise, the dramatically updated version of our Convergence Server Learning Management System. As we make the final preparations for launch, we'd like to take the opportunity to break down some of the key features of Convergence Server Enterprise, and to show you just what it is that sets our new LMS apart from the rest.

Brand new look and feel

The most apparent improvements to Convergence Server Enterprise are the new, graphics-rich user interface and gloriously refined organizational structure of the application as a whole. A lot of care went into making Convergence Server Enterprise perform faster and more efficiently. Not only that, we wanted it to feel faster. And boy, does it ever. From the convenience of the fixed menu, to the carefully considered visual design, to the helpfully placed breadcrumb navigation - This is the smartest, fastest, most versatile learning management system on the market.

New Features:

Sleek, modern color scheme
Single-page feel. No getting lost in popup after popup.
Brightly colored icons to aid navigation
"Help" features easily accessible throughout the system

Multi-site capability

Much has been done to support the new multi-site capability of Convergence Server Enterprise. The old application's basic, sometimes difficult method of defining and maintaining training groups has been transformed into a robust and flexible system that is easy to maintain from the corporate office all the way down to the individual user.

New Features:

Allows a single company to administer training for multiple sites on a single install
Breadcrumb navigation helps administrators quickly switch between working locations
“Jump To” functionality built into grids and detail pages allows you to switch locations with minimal effort
Each level of the organization can be renamed to fit your structure – if you have Crews instead of Teams – no problem

Easy-to-use content "Library"

Convergence Server Enterprise uses a new "Library" model that allows administrators to quickly and easily organize large quantities of training objects. Training objects (courses, documents, tasks, etc) are grouped into Activities, Categories and Curricula. Once your library is organized, it will be easy to assign training using our new “Qualifications”.

New Features:

Quicker and easier way to manage training and training materials
Built with Enterprise clients in mind, but easy enough for single sites
New structure simplifies reporting needs
Once organized, assigning training from the library is dramatically simplified

Versatile qualification-building system.

Convergence Server Enterprise establishes qualifications as a single entity that may contain multiple requirements. For instance, to qualify to operate Paper Machine #9, you may require that an employee completes 4 separate requirements. To be considered “Qualified”, you can designate the number of items that must be completed, or the amount of training time that must be accumulated. Once your Qualifications have been created, they can be assigned to any level of your organization with customized schedules, due dates, and expiration dates.

New Features:

Build reusable Requirements that include courses, classes, tasks, quizzes or documents
Qualifications include one or more Requirements
Set completion of qualification by number, or by accumulated time
Assign qualifications to specific users or to entire user departments, sites, or organization
Start dates, due dates, and expiration dates are much more flexible and easy to use

Revised user permissions handling

Convergence Server Enterprise includes a much more flexible engine for handling system-wide administrative permissions. Permissions can be assigned at any level in the organization, including directly to individual users, and can be configured so managers' read/write permissions are restricted to profiles and reports belonging to their department only. The system can accommodate very complex custom configurations, and several pre-configured roles will also be available out of the box.

New Features:

Context-based permissions handling. Set permissions by user, by department, or by site.
Offers support for very complex configurations
Out of the box roles include Team Manager, Department Manager, Site Manager, Region Manager, Instructor, Report Viewer

Expanded reporting functions.

The reporting functions in Convergence Server Enterprise have been have been re-imagined and re-designed to provide greater speed and flexibility in communicating employee progress. Select your employees, choose a report format, and generate transcripts that detail employee progress in the completion of assigned courses, classes and tasks. Program the report to go out once, or at daily, weekly, or monthly intervals.

New Features

Schedule recurring reports with custom schedules for daily, weekly, or monthly reports
Export reports in multiple formats (PDF, Excel, TIFF, HTML)
Simplified SQL Reporting services make it easier to modify and create

Conclusion

There you have it - a breakdown of some of the exciting new features of Convergence Server Enterprise. There will be more to come as we continue moving forward toward release, but, in the meantime, feel free to leave us feedback here on the blog, or contact us directly regarding any questions you may have about Convergence Server Enterprise.

EHS Course Development Survey

noreply@blogger.com (Convergence Training) — Tue, 01 Jun 2010 18:15:00 +0000

Here at Convergence Training, we work on a pretty tight schedule. With loads of custom training projects in production, our writers are busy scripting and storyboarding and our artists are hard at work modeling and designing the dynamic 3D courses we're so proud to produce.

At the same time, we're continuing to build our retail safety and compliance library. At a recent planning meeting, we developed a diverse list of candidates for production in the coming months.

But now we need your help. Since we can’t make all these courses at once, we'd love to hear what you think. What’s on our list that you need the most? Anything not on the list that you'd like to see us put our spin on?

Take the poll or leave a comment and let us know what you'd like to see next.

Convergence Server Enterprise - Sneak Peek

noreply@blogger.com (Convergence Training) — Wed, 19 May 2010 01:24:00 +0000

Today we're happy to announce that our talented development team has been working diligently on a brand new version of our Convergence Server Learning Management System. We expect to have it ready for release by June of this year, and are planning for the first implementations in the 3rd quarter. Rebuilt from the ground up, Convergence Server Enterprise will launch with buckets of great new features. Here's an idea of what you can expect:

Bigger, Better, Faster.

While Convergence Server Enterprise has provided training administrators with powerful training delivery, tracking, and reporting tools, we think we can offer our clients more. In Convergence Server Enterprise, we've retained the core functionality of the original system while reworking the entire platform to be more flexible, more intuitive, and much more powerful. We've also added multi-site capability, increased the customization options for training plans and training groups, and generally made the whole application bigger, better and faster.

What's new?

Here’s a peek at some of the new features we’re building into Convergence Server Enterprise:

• New organizational structure and user interface.
• Revised user permissions system
• Complete ASP.Net web application core
• Microsoft Silverlight integration for content creation (Tasks, Quizzes, Classes, etc.)
• Configurable required fields, field names, column names, languages
• Job scheduling engine for emails, reports, and backups
• System audit records
• Versioning for training records
• Extended design for increased flexibility and multi-site capability
• Separation of content repositories (local/remote servers)
• Looking at rugged tablet PC hardware for new portable Scout version

More to come.

So that's our brief introduction to Convergence Server Enterprise. We'll be releasing more details as we approach our launch date, so check back here or subscribe to our RSS feed to receive future updates.

Hexavalent Chromium Video Sample

kdellavalle@capstonetechnology.com (Convergence Training) — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 18:00:00 +0000

We've recently completed work on our new Hexavelent Chromium video and it's now available for sale from BuyBetterTraining.com.

Learn to how to comply with OSHA's standards concerning monitoring and controlling exposure to cr6+, and understand how to keep yourself and your team safe when working with this known human carcinogen.

Check out a sample clip from the video:

Hexavalent Chromium, or Cr(VI), is used in many industrial processes and can often be found in steel production and metal working. Welders in particular are at risk for CR(VI) exposure; especially when arc welding or stick welding with stainless steel or chromium metal.

The Hexavalent Chromium dust or gasses produced from heated metal attacks the airways, leading to nasal and skin ulcerations, lesions, respiratory ailments, and lung and nasal cancers.

Our Hexavelent Chromium video covers OSHA requirements regarding exposure to these dangers, including instruction on the following topics:

Exposure levels and assesment
Observation and Recording of Monitoring
Employee Notification
Engineering and work Practice Controls
Sample controls for painting and welding
Respiratory protection
Additional PPE
Medical surveillance and examination

Stay safe. Check out the video at BuyBetterTraining.com

Convergence Training will Relocate to Larger Facility

kdellavalle@capstonetechnology.com (Convergence Training) — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 20:57:00 +0000

Convergence Training has officially outgrown our current location in Camas, WA.

Over the last 12 years, we've slowly expanded our office space by knocking down walls as other suites have been vacated. A few years ago, we finally inherited the entire upstairs of our rental space. With the amount of new staff we hired in 2009, and the goals and opportunities we have for this year and beyond, we've finally outgrown our current location.

To give us room for future expansion, Convergence has found a new office space in nearby Vancouver, WA. This building has two floors and will nearly double our square footage.

Now that the paperwork has been signed and the move is official, we are excited for construction to begin. For the next few months, we will be waiting patiently as the building gets some improvements, including an elevator for ADA compliancy, new bathrooms, a renovated upstairs, and new office partitions. We are planning to complete the remodel and move into the new building mid-summer.

While we are excited to be moving to a larger and nicer facility, we want to assure you that this is not some fancy, over-priced high-rise building in Manhattan. We looked long and hard to find a building that could accommodate our current and future workforce without increasing the costs to the customers. We will continue to provide affordable training services, with the same quality 3D graphics and animation, that our customers have come to expect.
