Basic Pipeline Orientation

Pipeline Work Presents Unique Hazards

And incidents that occur can have devastating consequences to people, the environment, and the reputation of the company or industry as a whole.

Basic Pipeline Orientation is a 1-day, instructor-led, comprehensive orientation developed specifically for pipeline workers. Through interactive, engaging content, workers learn a broad range of safe work practices and are prepared for hazards they will encounter in the pipeline industry. Content is aligned to SafeLandUSA 2021 and course completion provides  SafeLandUSA credentials.

Pipeline Connect, now available in e-Learning, is a safety orientation for workers in the pipeline industry who have already completed Veriforce’s SafeLandUSA 2021 Basic. This supplemental course is designed to build on the safety information students previously learned in SafeLandUSA 2021 Basic program by providing them with specific safety information for pipeline operations.
