The Beginning

CICT was the vision of two men who identified the need for standardized safety training for contractors based on industry needs and best practices.

Worker and employee safety is our primary focus.

Scope of Interest

CICT recognizes the investment of training employees and we posses a system made of: training, certification, and re-certification that is recognized site-wide. This system was implemented to assist in helping reduce the financial burden of training and re-training employees.

Each workshop consists of classroom instruction; workshop exercises, written exam followed by practical training exercises/exams (when needed).
