Our pedagogical project follows the guidelines imposed by Regulatory Standard nº1.

After payment is made, Purchase Order, Contract signed between the parties, or other form of closing confirmation, the teaching material will be released within 72 working hours (up to 9 days), due to the adaptation of the syllabus and compliance with the Standards Techniques applicable to the scenario expressed by the Contracting Party; as well as other adaptations to the didactic material, carried out by our Multidisciplinary Team for technical language according to the student’s nationality and Technical Operational and Maintenance Instruction Manuals specific to the activities that will be carried out.

Attention: The Course teaches how to Apply the normative concepts of the standard, which enables you to sign Projects, Reports, Expertise etc. these are the attributions that the (a) Legally Qualified Professional has with their Class Council, such as CREA.
This course aims to study situations where it will be necessary to apply: Concepts and Calculations according to relevant Standards and does not replace the analysis and responsibility on the part of each professional accredited by CREA or other Class Councils in the most varied situations, where makes it imperative to respect the conservation conditions of the equipment, periodic checking of the instruments, such as respect for the primary capacity predetermined by the PPE manufacturers, among others based on the corresponding Standards.

Certificate: The Certificate will be issued to each participant who reaches the minimum achievement of 70% (theoretical and practical) as recommended by the Regulatory Standards.

Criteria for Training or Updating Certificates:
Our certificates are numbered and issued in accordance with the Regulatory Standards and applicable devices:
Issue of A.R.T. (Technical Responsibility Note);
Employee’s full name and identity document;
Program content;
Workload; City, place and date of the training;
Name, identification, signature and qualification of instructor(s);
Name, identification and signature of the technical person responsible for the training;

Heads up:
EAD (Distance Learning), Semi-presential The EAD Certificate also known as Online, according to LAW No. 9,394, OF DECEMBER 20, 1996. can be used for: Complementary Activities; company valuations; Public Tenders; University Extension; Extracurricular hours; Improved chances of getting a job; Recruitment processes; Internal promotions; Title Evidence; Doctoral selections; Master’s Selections; Enter other opportunities. 100% Distance Learning Course (Distance Learning) or Semi-attendance needs a Pedagogical Project is only valid for the Employer, if you follow in full SEPRT Ordinance No. 915, of July 30, 2019  –   NR 01 –  General Provisions of the Special Secretariat of Pension and Work.

The rationale for the Price and Value relationship:
The pricing of any service requires expertise related to the business world and the concept of Value is qualitative, directly linked to the potential for transformation that exists in that content. The service has more value when it has added professional knowledge and secrets and the price is a variable that is a consequence of the value, whose objective is to transmit it in numbers. Thus, the greater the value added to the content, the greater its fair price. Therefore, we do not authorize the use of our Proposals as proof of closing with third parties with a lower price, or of secondary interest, Quality, Safety, Efficiency and Excellence, in every sense, are our values.

Causes of Work Accident:
Lack of alert from the employer;
Lack of employee care;
Even carrying out all the mandatory Training and Occupational Health and Safety Reports in the event of an accident at work, the employer will be subject to processes such as:
Police Inquiry – Civil Police;
Expertise through Instituto Criminalista;
Verification Procedure at the Regional Labor Office;
Public Civil Inquiry before the Public Ministry of labor to verify that other workers are not in danger;
The INSS will question the cause of the accident that could be avoided and refuse to pay the benefit to the employee;
Family members may file a lawsuit in the Labor Court claiming pain and suffering, material damage, dislocation, etc.;
Procedural Tsunami forcing the Employer to generate a Defense Strategy even though it is right;
Although the Labor Delegation Law does not provide that “culpa en vigilando” applies, but only the responsibility to deliver the equipment, however it is worth emphasizing that the Employer is also responsible for overseeing;
When an accident occurs, in addition to destroying all the “good mood” in the relations between employees or also the very serious problem of defending yourself against a series of procedures at the same time, then it is worth investing in this prevention;
The Employee may not carry out activities exposed to risks that could compromise their safety and health, thus the Employer may respond in the criminal and civil spheres.
