COMPANY'S HISTORY

Hard Hat Training has been providing heavy equipment operator training services across the U.S. and Canada for nearly two decades. Our story started over 15 years ago in the Seattle area where we specialized in the inspection, testing, and certification of cranes. To this day, those same inspectors travel all over the country and even outside the country inspecting cranes and training heavy equipment operators. Our Hard Hat Training Series training tools have also become commonplace across the globe.

Our main purpose is to provide you with easy and affordable compliant OSHA safety training solutions. Our customer satisfaction is based on these three core values:

At Hard Hat Training, we are just your run-of-the-mill folks, but with an intense desire to become the best we can be and to help you get the best you deserve. We are learners and teachers and learners evermore. We are fiercely independent yet humbly dependent. We expect from ourselves and others honesty, kindness, understanding, and gratitude. We strive to be aware of others’ needs and to be accessible so that we can fulfill them. 

We are hyper-focused on delivering more than expected. We want you to feel comfortable turning to us again and again for any help you may need as you work tirelessly to create a safe work environment and achieve ultimate OSHA compliance.

For our customers in Canada, we've worked non-stop with leading safety companies across your country in order to release Canada-compliant versions of these same training kits (each training kit comes with additional federal and provincial training and safety helps) and online training courses for Canadian operators. 

In fact, our online classes are our biggest sellers in Canada--used in virtually every province by companies such as Leavitt Machinery, SafeTech Training, City of Toronto, and others.
