FSN now has the flexibility to streamline our exams into single-paged (double-sided) sheets. The exams can be reused and are simply a reference for students to use to complete their one-page Answer Sheet.
Once a student has completed the Answer Sheet, and both student and Instructor have signed off on it, the Instructor would only need to submit the Answer Sheet and Sign-in Sheet to FSN.
These can be submitted by traditional mail OR scanned and emailed directly to info@fsntraining.com.
In our digital age, we can now email Permanent Certificates (ROT's) to you for distribution to your students.
You could either print these certificates and distrubute them to your students. Or, you would have the option of emailing these certificates to your students.
What this means: no more waiting weeks or months for permanent certificates!
FSN realizes that Instructors often need their books and other training materials PRONTO!
Normally, we can have books shipped to you in one business day. However, if you're in a pinch, you can always print your own materials at any time.

Working at Heights training is a course designed to teach workers, supervisors, and employers how to work safely at heights. The course covers topics such as the rights and responsibilities of workers and employers, identifying hazards associated with working at heights, using personal fall protection equipment, and developing a rescue plan.
All workers in Ontario who work at heights, including those who work on construction sites, are required to complete a CPO-approved Working at Heights training program. Employers must ensure that their workers complete the training before they begin work at heights.
The Working at Heights training course in Ontario is 8 hours long. The course is divided into a theory component, which is completed in the classroom, and a practical component, which involves hands-on training using the equipment that the workers will be using when they work at heights.
If a student has completed this training before, they are only required to take the 4 hour Working at Heights Refresher program.
Workers in Ontario who have completed the Working at Heights training course must take a refresher course every three years to maintain their certification. The refresher course is also at least 4 hours long and covers any changes to the regulations or best practices related to working at heights.
No, the Working at Heights training course in Ontario cannot be completed entirely online. The course requires hands-on training using equipment, and the practical component must be completed in person.
Employers are responsible for ensuring that their workers complete the Working at Heights training course before they work at heights. If workers do not complete the training, they cannot work at heights, and employers may face penalties and fines for failing to comply with the Ministry of Labour regulations. Additionally, workers who do not complete the training put themselves at risk of injury or fatality when working at heights.
Yes, propane records of training (ROT's) are valid for 3 years. Retraining must be completed to renew a ROT.
Anyone using, transporting, filling, storing, or offering propane for transport in the workplace requires approved training throughout Canada. Additional training covering the transportation of dangerous goods may also be applicable.
Contact FSN at info@fsntraining.com or 905-649-7670 to book an on-site approved program.
Propane construction heaters must never be operated in enclosed areas without proper ventilation. Without following the manufacturer's fresh air inlet requirements, carbon monoxide could be produced causing workers to experience flu-like symptoms, unconsciousness and death. The amount of fresh air ventilation needed can be found on the construction heater's rating plate. If you experience symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, go outside to fresh air immediately and seek medical attention.
All ROT’s & licences required by TSSA in Ontario are set out under the TSSA Act in Regulation 215/01, Fuel Industry Certificates.
All propane Records of Training are valid for 3 years. Reg 215/01 Sec. 54
Please click the following link: Measurement Canada Bulletin C-03 rev.4
The requirement for a Record of Training by the Technical Standards & Safety Authority (TSSA) was suspended in April of 2001 as it was determined that the Department of Labour’s B335-04 standard met the intent of the requirements by TSSA.
Some provinces state how old you must be to dispense propane. Others don’t. New Brunswick requires a person to be 18 years old, Nova Scotia requires one to be 16 years old. In other provinces, the Canadian Propane Association recommends that you are 16 years old.
If filling propane cylinders with a capacity than 46L (40lb) or less, you only need to take the Filling Propane Cylinders course. If filling cylinders greater than this, you need to take the TDG Supplement for Filling over 40lb Cylinders.

Yes this is correct. It was changed by TSSA in May 2018. The following link to Advisory FS-236-18 outlines the requirements for refueling propane vehicles in Ontario.
In Ontario, TSSA added a clause (6.4.4) to the B149.2-15 as part of the code adoption that says “If a cylinder has a sleeve, it shall be removed to facilitate the visual inspection prior to filling the cylinder.”
No. The Federal Liquidifed Petroleum Gases Bulk Storage Regulation C.R.C., c. 1152, in section 59 states “ The direct transfer of liquefied petroleum gas between tank trucks and tank cars on carrier’s right-of-way is prohibited”.
Yes. As of July 2017, Transport Canada, as part of their International Harmonization initiative, now allows DOT cylinders to be filled or re-qualified in Canada. The change is outlined the Canadian Propane Association’s Bulletin 39-2017 which says:
Pressure receptacles (cylinders, tubes and spheres) that meet the U.S. DOT specifications are allowed to be filled with gases such as propane and used in Canada regardless of the date of manufacture. Prior to this amendment, cylinders manufactured after 1992 could only be filled and used in Canada if they conformed to Canadian specifications. The amendment requires that requalification, repair, rebuilding or treatment of Canadian or U.S. specification receptacles be conducted in accordance with Canadian technical standards when done in Canada, with U.S. requirements when done in the U.S. and with either U.S. or Canadian requirements when done outside of Canada or the U.S. The receptacle must be marked in accordance with the standards or requirements used.

Whenever an employee is exposed to Hazardous Materials in the Workplace they need to be trained. If new materials are added, updated information must be supplied about the material. The Occupational Health & Safety Act states in Section 42(3) that “An employer shall review, in consultation with the committee or health & safety representative, if any, for the workplace, the training and instruction provided to a worker and the worker’s familiarity therewith at least annually.” Section 42(4) states “The review described in subsection (3) shall be held more frequently than annually if, a) the employer, on the advice of the committee or health & safety representative, if any, for the workplace, determines that such review is necessary; or there is a change in circumstances that may affect the health and safety of a worker”. Click https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/90o01#BK79 to see it in the Act.
WHMIS stands for Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System and is aligned with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). This globally agreed upon system classifies hazardous products and lays out a standard format for labels and safety data sheets (SDS's) in the workplace. Employers in Canada are responsible for ensuring that their employees are trained in WHMIS to meet occupational health and safety requirements.
