The Canada Safety Council (CSC) offers ATV and UTV RiderCourses aimed at enhancing rider safety training and practical skills. These courses help participants gain a deeper understanding of their own abilities as well as the capabilities of their ATV or UTV. Through hands-on training, the importance of keeping the machine rider-active is emphasized—highlighting how the rider’s body position and actions are crucial for safe operation. Additionally, the course introduces essential strategies for identifying potential hazards and managing risks effectively, ensuring that every ride—whether for work or recreation—is safer and more controlled. The CSC also provides a comprehensive snowmobile safety program, further promoting safety awareness among all riders.

This comprehensive snowmobile safety program covers essential skills for handling sleds in various conditions, understanding safe travel practices, and recognizing potential hazards on the job site. By integrating Canada Safety Council guidelines, the program equips workers with the knowledge and confidence they need to engage in effective rider safety training while prioritizing safety in remote and challenging environments.
