OSHA 30-Hour Construction safety course is intended for supervisors or for workers with some safety responsibility. It provides a greater depth and variety of training on an expanded list of topics associated with workplace hazards than the TEXO Safety First class. Topics include recognition, avoidance, abatement and prevention of safety and health hazards found in the workplace.
  
A full-day course that describes how to establish and execute the BIM process, facilitate its adoption, and achieve integration on a single project and on multiple projects simultaneously. Participants review several real-world case studies to analyze the costs, benefits, and impacts of each decision made while experiencing how BIM breaks down the isolation found in organizational silos.
  
In partnership with TEXO, Red Angle will host a customized six-week construction Spanish language training program, including two live workshops. Red Angle’s 6-Week Construction Spanish program is (yep—you guessed it) six weeks long and requires only 10 minutes per day. The program includes daily videos sent directly to your email inbox, a book, workbook, audio CD (we have MP3s also) and custom set of flash cards. Unlike other language programs that will use your valuable time to learn farm animals and fruit, we focus on making Spanish for the construction industry that is relevant, entertaining, and brief.
